At this altitude (2150-2200 ft) water will boil at about 97.8 oC . It also depends on the weather (high/low pressure).

This is calculated according to 'Water Altitude Boiling Point Calculator' (Cf. 'Related links' just below this answer. Select on opened site page the 2nd button 'What is the local altitude' in ft. or m.).

How long does it take a cup of water to boil at 160 F?

Quite a while. You have to go to 30,000 feet above sea level--and you'll need to do it in an airplane because Mount Everest is only 29,000 feet at the peak. Anyway, once you've gone that high it just takes a few minutes to boil the water.


At 1000 feet above sea level at what temperature will water boil?

At higher altitudes, water will come to a boil at lower temperatures than at sea level. The pressure at 10,000 ft is 20.58 inches Hg, and so the boiling point is 194.7 °F. See the Related Question link to the left of this answer for more detailed information "How does the elevation affect at what temperature water will boil?"


What is the of salt on the boiling temperature of water?

Salted water will boil at a slightly higher temperature than unsalted water. This is particularly helpful if you live in a higher altitude because for every 500 feet of altitude, water boils at a slightly lower temperature. For example, at 1000 feet above sea level, water boils at approx. 209 degrees so salted water would boil at closer to the normal boiling temperature of 212 degrees.


What is the boiling point of water on Tall mountain peaks?

The boiling point of water decreases with altitude due to lower atmospheric pressure. On tall mountain peaks, such as those exceeding 8,000 feet (about 2,400 meters), water can boil at temperatures lower than the standard 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at sea level. For example, at around 10,000 feet, water may boil at approximately 90 degrees Celsius (194 degrees Fahrenheit). This reduction in boiling point can affect cooking and other processes that rely on boiling water.


What temperature does water freeze at at 2500 feet?

Water typically freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 degrees Celsius) at sea level. As altitude increases, the boiling point of water decreases by about 1 degree Fahrenheit for every 500 feet gain in altitude. Therefore, at 2500 feet, water is likely to freeze at a slightly lower temperature than 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Can you boil water on a airplane?

Yes. Airplane cabins are usually pressurized to around 5,000 feet. So imagine you are just boiling water at 5,000 feet.


What temperature does water boil at 9000 feet elevation?

Air pressure affects the boiling point. Water does not ALWAYS boil at 212 degrees F. It only boils at 212 at sea level with pressure at around 14 psi. As you increase altitude, this pressure drops, thus, water will boil at a LOWER temperature. Roughly, the temperature at which water will boil drops just under 1 degree per 550 ft. So, at 7,500 ft. elevation, water would boil at around 198 degrees. This explains why foods cooked in boiling water at high elevations take longer to cook.


At what temperature does water boil on a hill?

Water boils at a lower temperature on a hill due to decreased atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes. For every 500 feet increase in elevation, the boiling point of water decreases by about 1 degree Fahrenheit.

What affects the temperature of water heating?

Altitude can. Water takes a higher temperature to boil at 10,000 feet than it does at sea level. Other things can sometimes affect it, too.

What is the freezing point of water at 16404 feet?

The freezing point of water decreases by about 1°F for every 500 feet increase in altitude. At 16,404 feet, the freezing point of water would be around 30°F.


What is the boiling point of water at 30000 feet?

At 30,000 feet above sea level, the boiling point of water is approximately 182°F or 83.3°C. This is because the atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude, causing water to boil at a lower temperature.


Why is it different at 5000 feet to boil water?

The atmospheric pressure is lower. When you are boiling the water, the water's vapour saturation pressure is able to match the atmospheric pressure faster therefore it boils faster and at a lower temperature.
