Dose salt water boils faster than plain water?

Answer 1

No-- plain water will boil first.

Salt water has a higher boiling point than plain water. This is another reason salt is added to pasta water-- not only does the salt add flavor to the pasta, the hotter boiling temperature cooks it faster.

Answer 2

There are lots of variables to control.

Assuming that two identical containers with the same volume of liquid are placed on exactly the same heat source then plain water would probably boil first as it boils at a lower temperature than salty water.

Answer 3

Yes, salt water boils faster than plain water due to the presence of salt which increases the boiling point of the water. The salt disrupts the formation of hydrogen bonds between water molecules, making it easier for the water to overcome the forces holding it together and reach its boiling point faster.
