Is freezing boiling or melting most affected by pressure?
Boiling point is most affected by pressure. Note that freezing point and melting point are in fact the same.
How do altitude affect freezing melting and boiling points of water?
As altitude increases, the air pressure decreases. This results in lower boiling points for water because there is less atmospheric pressure pushing down on the water. However, the freezing point of water is not significantly affected by altitude.
What is the effect of decreased pressure on boiling point and freezing point of water?
Decreased pressure lowers the boiling point of water because it reduces the pressure exerted on the liquid, allowing the water molecules to escape into the vapor phase more easily. However, decreased pressure has a less significant effect on the freezing point of water compared to the boiling point, as freezing point is more influenced by the presence of impurities in the water.
What is the effect of decreased pressure on the boiling and freezing point?
As pressure decreases, the boiling point of water will also decrease. Backpackers camping in the high mountains are familiar with the phenomena when they get water boiling - and find that it is still only lukewarm because the atmospheric pressure at their high altitude is so low.
List four properties of a solution that depend on the total concentration but not the type of particle or particles present as solute?
freezing point depression boiling point elevation osmotic pressure vapor pressure lowering

Why are physical processes like freezing and boiling not chemical reaction?
Freezing and boiling do not change the chemistry in the process.
Can the freezing point be lower than its boiling point in a constant pressure?
At a constant pressure, the freezing point is always going to be lower than the boiling point.
Boiling involves the same change of state as?
It is not. The boiling point of water (at standard pressure) is 100 deg C while the freezing point is 0 deg C. 100 is not the same as 0!
Melting boiling condensation freezing solidification and evaporation are processes which involve what?
Water.
What are the freezing and boiling points of water on the Fahrenheit scale?
32 freezing, 212 boiling - at sea level. Temps change as air pressure changes.
What is the effect of decreased pressure on boiling point and freezing point of water?
Decreased pressure lowers the boiling point of water because it reduces the pressure exerted on the liquid, allowing the water molecules to escape into the vapor phase more easily. However, decreased pressure has a less significant effect on the freezing point of water compared to the boiling point, as freezing point is more influenced by the presence of impurities in the water.
Does freezing temperature change at higher altitudes?
Elevation has minimal affects on the freezing point of water as it doesn't deal with gas molecules as boiling does. Elevation affects the boiling point of water because the air pressure changes with elevation.
Which scale has 100 divisions between freezing and boiling?
Celsius and Kelvin each have 100 divisions from freezing to boiling.
What is the processes needed to change the state of matter?
Examples : sublimation, deposition, boiling, melting, freezing.
Compared to the pure water an aqueous solution of calcium chloride has a?
Higher boiling point and a lower freezing point. These are called colligative properties. When a solute is put into solution with the solvent, there is a change in the vapor pressure, osmotic pressure, elevation of the boiling point, and depression of the freezing point.
