Ya ........ if you have an egg on the top of high mountain the altitude and less air density causes lower boiling points and when you get higher it reduces the boiling point of the water and it is due to atmospheric pressure.Boiling is directly proportional to atmospheric pressure which becomes lower when we go above the sea level example mountainous areas.

What else can I help you with?
Is it true that the boiling point of a liquid remains constant at all altitudes?
No. Atmospheric pressure falls the higher you go. The boiling point of a liquid varies with ambient pressure. If the pressure is lower then the boiling point will be lower.
Why boiling point of water in Shimla in lower than that in Delhi?
It depends what your altitude is compared to sea level. The lower below sea level you are, the more atmospheric pressure there is thus increasing boiling point; pressure raises the boiling point. That is why your auto has a pressurized cooling system - to stop boil over.
What is the boiling temp of water at 4000 ft?
The boiling temperature of water decreases as altitude increases. At an altitude of 4000 feet, the boiling point of water is around 204°F (96°C) instead of the standard 212°F (100°C) at sea level.
What happens to the altitude and boiling point as the pressure is increased?
As altitude increases, pressure decreases, so boiling point decreases, so the liquid would boil at a lower temperature and would not be able to get as hot and remain a liquid. As pressure is increased, boiling point increases, meaning the liquid could get hotter than normal and remain a liquid.PV=nRT - pressure x volume = the number of moles x constant x temperature
Is the temperature at which water boils at the seashore is less or greater than that at a Himalayan peak?
The boiling point of water decreases with altitude, so the temperature at which water boils would be lower at a Himalayan peak compared to the seashore. This is because air pressure decreases with increasing altitude, which affects the boiling point of water.
Does melting point and boiling point of liquid changes from altitude to altitude?
The boiling point depends on altitude (pressure). The effect on the melting point is not significant.
How are melting and boiling points affected as altitude is increased?
Boiling point decrease at high altitude.
Is it true that boiling point remain constant in all altitudes?
No, the boiling point decrease at high altitudes.
Why does water boil at a lower temperature as altitude increases?
Air pressure affects the boiling point. Lower air pressure is present at higher altitudes.
What is the relation between the altitude compared to sea level and the boiling point of water?
In general, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure, and the lower the pressure the lower the boiling point.
Is that true that boiling point of a liquid remains constant at all altitudes?
The boiling point is lower at high altitude.
Where on earth where the boiling point of water is lower?
high altitude
Why the boiling point of water is 98 in Kaghan?
The boiling point of water decrease when the altitude increase and the atmospheric pressure decrease.
Why is the boiling point in Durban different from that in Johannesburg?
Boiling point is dependent on air pressure. Air pressure is dependent on altitude. Durban is coastal, almost sea level. Johannesburg is inland, quite a bit higher. High altitude = low air pressure = low boiling point.
Does the boiling temperature change as the elavation gets higher?
Yes, at high altitude the boiling point is lower.
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.
Does melting point changes from altitude to altitude?
Yes, it does. It is do because with change in altitude their is change in temp. and pressure which also changes the melting point. The change in melting point could be small to large depending upon change in conditions at different altitudes.
