When water boils in a pan on a hot burner how does heat get to the water?
Heatherweldon
The only way to 'place' water on a hot burner is when it is a solid (ice), or as a container of liquid water
Naturally, the hot burner would melt it into a liquid and rapidly boid it away into water vapor (gas)

What happens to water when you add heat?
It get hotter and if it is frozen it melts. If it is melted it boils.
Will 1 liter of hot water have more or less heat energy than 2liters of hot water?
no, there is no difference
If you dropped ice cubes in a pan and put it on a hot burner. when the water began to boil how many calories of heat energy had been absorbed by each gram of water in the pan?
1 calorie (or rather, kilocalorie). This is because the specific heat of water is 1.
How do household steam cleaners work?
the steam cleaners heat up the water till it boils and the water steams it sends the steam through tubes the steam is way to hot for most bacteria and it kills them
Which Situation is a example of transferring heat by means of convection?
Picking up a hot soldering iron by the wrong end.

Why doesn't cold water make a hot burner cold?
Heat is a form of energy and due to the principal of thermodynamic equilibrium, will constantly seek a state of equilibrium. The reason a hot burner does not become cold is because as the energy is transferred to the cold water more energy is being put into the burner through either electricity or gas. If there was no source of energy to the burner, then the cold water would cool down the hot burner, though the cold water would also heat up in the process, to the point where both are at room temperature.

How do you know a burner is hot?
if you feel heat.
Why does food dry out if you keep it in a hot oven?
Because the heat either enhances the evaporation of, or boils, the water in the food.
What does bring to a boil mean?
Usually this is referring to water or a similar liquid. Bring to a boil basically means you heat it on the stove until it boils. You can tell that it's boiling once the water is bubbling. Once it is boiling you have "brought it to a boil"

What insure that cold water is forced to the bottom of the water heater tank?
The cold water supply enters the tank at the bottom near the burner. Heat rises, as does hot water. The hot water supply is piped out from the top.
Why does hot water boils faster than cold water?
Hot water boils faster than cold water because it is closer in temperature to the boiling point. The boiling point of water is 100oC. If we had hot water at 90oC and cold water at 20oC, then the hot one would reach the boiling point of 100oC faster, since it only has 10oC more to go adn less heat needs to be added.ummm... hot water and hot water boil at the same rate...

Why hot steel metal blasts when reacts with water?
When a hot enough object meets water, some of the water boils instantly. As any substance boils it expands.
Why is it impossible for hikers camping on a high peak to get really hot cup of coffee?
At a high altitude, the atmospheric pressure is low, so water boils at a lower temperature; as it boils, it loses heat.
