Steps to see if adding salt to water change the temperature at which it boils?

To test if adding salt to water increases the boiling point of the water, do the following: boil a sample of pure water until it boils. Measure the temperature at which the pure water boils. Take another sample of pure water and add salt to it, then boil this sample under the same conditions. Measure the temperature at which the salt water boils. If the latter temperature is higher, salt does increase the boiling point of water.


After Felix adds salt to the boiling water what will he have in the pot?

Salt water, but the water will stop boiling because upon adding the salt it raised the boiling point of water.


When a teaspoon of salt is dissolved In a pot of water will the salt undergo a chemical change or a physical change?

When a teaspoon of salt is dissolved in a pot of water, it undergoes a physical change. The salt dissociates into its constituent ions, sodium and chloride, but its chemical structure remains unchanged. This process is reversible, as the salt can be recovered by evaporating the water. Thus, the dissolution of salt in water is a physical change rather than a chemical one.


A cook decided to add salt to a pot of soup that was boiling on the stove. As soon as the salt was added the soup stopped boiling. Explain why this happened?

Adding the salt to the soup raised the boiling point of the water in the soup. This is a well known phenomena in thermodynamics that when you add a solute (especially one with a much higher boiling point than the solvent) to a solvent (which is water in this case) you will initially increase the temperature at which the resulting solution will boil - and incidentally also depress the temperature at which it will freeze.


Who can salt be separated from water?

Salt can be separated from water through a process called evaporation. By heating the water containing salt, the water evaporates, leaving behind the salt crystals. The salt can then be collected and the water vapor can be condensed back into liquid form.

If you were writing a recipe for pasta for your sister how would you tell her to add salt to the water?

To add salt to the water for cooking pasta, fill a large pot with water and bring it to a rolling boil. Once boiling, add a generous amount of salt—about 1 to 2 tablespoons for every 4-6 quarts of water. This will enhance the flavor of the pasta as it cooks. Stir the water briefly to help the salt dissolve before adding the pasta.


How do you properly boil a pot of water for cooking pasta?

How to keep rice from getting mushi?

If your rice is getting mushy then you are using too much water to cook with. When I make rice, I rinse my rice with hot water first and then add just enough water to cover my hand when pressed on the top of the rice while in the pot. Adding about 2 tablespoons of oil will keep it from sticking to the pot. Use a heavy pot and add a little salt. Once your rice has come to a boil, turn it down to finish cooking and stir occasionally.

When boiling eggs do you but the eggs in before or after the water is boiling?

It was commonly believed that adding salt to water lowers the boiling temperature of water and causes it to boil faster, however this was shown to cause such a small change that it was rendered insignificant (however covering the pot will decrease loss of heat and will cause the water to boil faster than an uncovered pot). Adding salt to water essentially only adds flavor to the pasta that you are cooking, so adding salt before or after the water is boiling really doesn't matter. What does matter is that you add the salt before you add the pasta.
