How can you make a liquid boil without raising its temperature?
Reduce the surrounding pressure. Lowering the pressure on a liquid reduces its boiling point, causing it to boil at a lower temperature.
At what point, in terms of vapor pressure, will a liquid boil?
A liquid will boil when its vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure.
When the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the air pressure in the room what will the liquid do?
When the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the air pressure in the room, the liquid will reach equilibrium and stop evaporating. This is because the rate of evaporation is equal to the rate of condensation.
Is it possible to boil water by passing steam at atmospheric pressure?
No, passing steam at atmospheric pressure will not cause water to boil. Boiling occurs when the liquid reaches its boiling point temperature and vapor pressure overcomes the atmospheric pressure. Generally, steam at atmospheric pressure will only cause the water to heat up and potentially evaporate faster.
In the vacuum of space will a can of coke explode?
It is unlikely that a can of Coke would explode in the vacuum of space because the pressure inside the can is not high enough to cause an explosion. The lack of air pressure in space would cause the liquid to rapidly boil and the can may rupture, but it would not explode violently.
Why lowering the pressure cause a liquid to boil?
it becomes easier for the molecules to escape
How can you make a liquid boil without raising its temperature?
Reduce the surrounding pressure. Lowering the pressure on a liquid reduces its boiling point, causing it to boil at a lower temperature.
Why does raising the temperature cause liquid to boil?
Decreasing the pressure -APEX
Can decreasing pressure above the water boil water faster?
No, decreasing pressure above the water will actually cause water to boil slower because boiling occurs when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the atmospheric pressure. Lowering the atmospheric pressure reduces the boiling point of water, so it will take longer to reach this lower boiling point.
At what point, in terms of vapor pressure, will a liquid boil?
A liquid will boil when its vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure.
When the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure the liquid .?
it begins to boil - Monsy
How can you boil water at room temperature?
bp can decresed by lowering the pressure
Can water boil without heat?
Boiling and melting points depend on both temperature and pressure. While the common way to boil something is to heat it, lowering the pressure significantly will also make it boil. For example, in the vacuum of space water will boil even when below zero degrees Celsius, but can be kept liquid well above 100 degrees Celsius if put under significant pressure.
What two factors determine the point at which a liquid will boil?
Heat or energy applied and atmosphereic pressuresPressure and temperature (apex)
How can you make a liquid boil without applying heat?
A quick way to make a liquid boil without heating it is to place a container of the liquid in a vacuum chamber and start pumping out the air. Seawater is distilled with a big help from the reduction of pressure on it. That way it doesn't have to be heated so much to cause it to change to steam. Modern naval ships have water desalination facilities on board that rely in part of the idea of reduction of pressure to lower the boiling point of the water. It's faster and more energy efficient.
What condition must exist for a liquid to boil?
For a liquid to boil, its vapor pressure must equal or surpass the pressure exerted on it by the surrounding environment. This typically occurs when the liquid reaches its boiling point, at which temperature its vapor pressure matches the surrounding pressure, causing bubbles of vapor to form within the liquid.
Why can't liquid boil at a low pressure?
Liquids can boil at low pressure, and in fact do so at lower temperatures than when the pressure is high.
