This has been asked over and over recently. Is this part of an exam or a class?

Boiling point decreases with altitude because there is less pressure. The water will boil when the vapor pressure equals the air pressure.

Baguio city is about 1500-1600 meters above sea level, making its temperatures roughly 8 degrees C less than the sea level areas of the Phillipines. For every 1000 feet in elevation, the boiling point of water decreases about 1 degree C. Very roughly, Baguio city is at 4500 feet elevation. The boiling point of water at Baguio city should be about 4.5 degrees C less than 100 degrees C, or 95.5 degrees C.

What is the boiling point of pbso4?

Lead(II) sulfate melts at over a 10000C. I can't find a boiling point and I am not surprised- I would expect decomposition at such temperatures.


Will adding different flavors of Kool-aid to boiling water affect its boiling point acuwul answer?

Well, honey, adding Kool-aid to boiling water will indeed affect its boiling point. The boiling point of water is typically 212 degrees Fahrenheit, but adding a substance like Kool-aid will raise the boiling point slightly due to the dissolved particles. So, in short, yes, it will have an impact on the boiling point, but don't expect any major fireworks.


Would you expect the boiling point of chlorine to be higher or lower than that of iodine?

I would expect the boiling point of chlorine to be lower than that of iodine. This is because chlorine is a smaller molecule with weaker London dispersion forces, while iodine is a larger molecule with stronger forces due to its larger size.


When boiling eggs you can smell sulfur what amino acids do you expect in the egg?

You can expect to find high levels of sulfur-containing amino acids such as cysteine and methionine in eggs. These amino acids are responsible for the sulfur smell that can be detected while boiling eggs.


Which of these alkanes methane ethane propane and butane expect to have the highest boiling point?

Butane would be expected to have the highest boiling point among methane, ethane, propane, and butane. This is because as the number of carbon atoms in the alkane chain increases, so does the strength of the intermolecular forces (London dispersion forces), leading to higher boiling points.

If you boil water at the top of a mountain would you expect it to boil at 100 degree Celsius explain?

Yes. In general, higher altitudes mean lower atmospheric pressure. Lower atmospheric pressure means lower boiling points.


Would you expect to get the same value for density of a liquid of 20 degree Celsius and 40 degree Celsius?

This question is dependent on the exact type of liquid. For example as it cools to freezing ice is actually less dense than liquid water. This is the reason for ice having the ability to float.


Why do Fahrenheit sides has more numbers than the Celsius sides?

1 degree Celsius is equal to 9/5 degrees Fahrenheit. Or it is easier to think that one degree Celsius is approximately two degrees Fahrenheit. So, if one has a thermometer that reads both Fahrenheit and Celsius, one would expect about twice the range of numbers on the Fahrenheit side, as well as potentially having more numbers marked on the scale.


How draw an label a graph you would expect to produce if water at 100 degree celsius was allowed to cool to -5 degree celsius?

The graph would start at 100°C and gradually decrease to -5°C over time. On the x-axis, you would plot time, while on the y-axis, you would plot temperature. You could label the axes accordingly and add a title such as "Cooling of Water from 100°C to -5°C".

If bacteria used in an experiment - were kept at a temperature of 100 degree Celsius - would you expect the population sizes to increase even faster than at 15 degree Celsius?

No, bacteria generally thrive at moderate temperatures that fall within their optimal growth range. A temperature of 100 degrees Celsius would likely be too high and could lead to cell damage or death, inhibiting bacterial growth. Population sizes would not increase faster at this extreme temperature compared to 15 degrees Celsius.
