Will rainwater and sea water boil at the same temperature?
No, rainwater and seawater will not boil at the same temperature. Seawater has a higher boiling point than rainwater due to the presence of dissolved salts and minerals, which raise the boiling point of the water.
Does Ar boil at a higher temperature than He?
Yes, argon (Ar) has a boiling point of -186°C, while helium (He) has a boiling point of -268.9°C, meaning helium boils at a lower temperature than argon.
When liquid helium is exposed to room temperature it forms a gas Which best explains why this happens?
Liquid helium is very cold, with a boiling point of -268.9°C. When exposed to room temperature (~20°C), the thermal energy causes the liquid helium to rapidly boil and transition into a gas state.
How is helium liquefied?
Most Helium is derived from natural gas. Helium is formed as a by product of radioactive decay in underground rocks. Alpha radiation is composed of Helium nucleii and having grabbed some spare electrons becomes the stable gas in these underground gas domes. Hydrogen and Helium gases will leak into outer space if released into the atmosphere and it is therefore pointless in trying to recover it from the air. Natural gas is progressively refrigerated and as it cools various elements within it boil off at lower and lower temperatures. Heike Kammerling Onnes was first to reach 4 degrees Kelvin(-269 degrees C) when Helium become a liquid in the late 19th century. Diffusion pumps are used to lower the pressure above the gas and then allowed to boil off. If you boil water at the summit of Mount Everest the water will never get higher than about 90 degrees centigrade before it boils because of the low air pressure at 29,000 feet. Hope this is of help
What happens when we let all of the Earth's helium float off into space?
If we let all of Earth's helium float off into space, we will not be able to replace it. Helium is a very important resource because it can be cooled to very low temperatures and exist as a liquid. It's used in MRI machines to cool the superconducting magnets, for instance. When used for cryogenic purposes, it's allowed to boil off into the atmosphere, where it floats up into space and is lost forever.
Where can helium boil?
The boiling point of helium is-268.93 °C
What is the normal temp for helium?
the temperature for helium is the temperature of the surroundings.
What is the state at room temp in helium?
Helium is a gas at room temperature.
What temp water boil?
212 f, 100 c
What state of matter is helium at room temp?
Helium is a gas and thus in the gaseous state at room temperature.
At what temp does 5050 antifreeze boil?
Depends on the pressure. A pressurized system will boil at a higher temp than one at atmospheric pressure. It is around 240-250 Deg F when under 15 psi
What temp will R11 at 14.7 boil?
At 14.7 psi, R11 (trichlorofluoromethane) will boil at approximately -15.4°F (-26.3°C).
What will boil first oxygen argon helium xenon?
Oxygen. Are you working on that STAR Science section practice (Question 6 in Physical Science section)?
At what temp does water boil at Base camp 1 in the Himalayas?
212 degrees F
Do all liquids boil?
No. There are liquids that boil at a few degrees above absolute zero (helium for example) and liquids that boil at several thousand degrees above absolute zero (tungsten for example)
Which liquid boils the quickest?
Liquid helium in the helium I phase boils at about 5 K, lower than any other substance. (Liquid helium in the helium II phase does not boil, it simply evaporates. Helium is truly weird stuff at very low temperatures.)
Does argon boil at a higher temperature than helium?
Yes, argon boils at a higher temperature than helium. Argon boils at -185.86°C whereas helium boils at -268.9°C.
