Liquids can boil at low pressure, and in fact do so at lower temperatures than when the pressure is high.

How does a pulse glass work?

The pulse glass contains a volatile liquid and vapor at low pressure. Warm one bulb in your hand and the increased vapor pressure will force the liquid into the other bulb and appear to boil.


Does water boil in a vacuum?

YesThis is because boiling is caused by the liquid water turning to gas which is not influenced directly by other materials. However, once in a vacuum the pressure is so low that the water will boil at much lower temperatures.


Why does water boil at 71 degrees Celsius on mount Everest?

Boiling of a liquid: The temprature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid becomes equal to the external pressure is called boiling point. So the atmospheric or external pressure on mount everest is low. Thats why water boils quickly.


Will 2 degree water at 300 psi boil if the pressure is released?

Since the triple point of water is at 0.01 °C you could certainly boil water if you released the pressure and allowed it to drop low enough. In this case "low enough" would be down around 10 mbar (0.01 bar).


Can water boil at a freezing point?

Absolutely, if the pressure of the system is low enough water will boil even at it's normal freezing point.


Can you boil chloroform at 0degree?

Yes you can boil. But you need a very low Pressure.


Is refrigerant a low pressure liquid as it leaves the condenser?

No, refrigerant is not a low-pressure liquid as it leaves the condenser. Instead, it exits the condenser as a high-pressure liquid after dissipating heat. This high-pressure liquid then flows to the expansion valve, where it is allowed to expand and drop in pressure before entering the evaporator.


How often does it flood on mars?

There is no liquid water on the surface of Mars. The atmospheric pressure is so low and the temperatures are so cold that any water on the surface would freeze and boil at the same time.


Why liquid change into gas in space?

In space, there is no atmosphere to exert pressure on liquids, so they can vaporize directly into gas without needing to boil. The lack of atmospheric pressure allows molecules to escape the liquid more easily and become a gas.
