How high is high?

The boiling temperature depends on the pressure of the atmosphere above the liquid. The higher you go the lower is the atmospheric pressure, and so the boiling temperature. Methanol boils at 64.7°C (148.4°F) at 760mmHg, about sea level.

All you have to do to reduce the boiling point of water is go to a higher altitude and boil it.


Why is it difficult to hard boil an egg at high altitude?

Because the air pressure is lower then at sealevel, the boiling temperature of the water is lower. Unless you have a (high) pressure cooker.

How do you boil water at a high altitude?

At high altitudes, water boils at a lower temperature due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. To account for this, you may need to boil the water longer or use a pressure cooker to raise the boiling temperature. It's essential to follow specific cooking instructions or use a thermometer to ensure the water reaches a safe temperature for cooking or sterilizing.


Mount everest has a high pressure to boil water?

The boiling point of water changes with altitude. While it boils at 100C at sea level, at the summit of Mount Everest water would boil at a lower temperature of 72C.

To maximize equilibrium yield of methanol would you use high or low temperature?

High because a higher pressure is the result of decreased volume and when a decreased volume for the equilibrium mixture is involved, the shift is toward the side with the least amount of mols of gas. 3 for reactants and 1 for methanol so towards methanol
