What is boiling piont of water?
100 degree Celsius
it evaporates soon after, it already starts to evaporate at 100 degrees Celsius
at about 106 degrees Celsius the water has reached It's max. temp. and will not evaporate more( don't let science teachers in class tell you that the thermometers are broken, we didn't fall for it, my friend did!)
What is fomular covert from Celsius to Fahrenheit?
F to C: Deduct 32, then multiply by 5, then divide by 9
C to F: Multiply by 9, then divide by 5, then add 32
This is fairly easy to do.
Q = M.Hevap
Q = energy for phase change
M = mass
HEvap = heat of vaporization
The heat of vaporization can be obtained from steam tables, usually with a unit of kJ/kg. Convert your mass to kg and then find Q (kJ).
Then check for a conversion factor between kJ and calories.
What is minus 5c in Fahrenheit?
(-5) degrees Celsius = 23 degrees Fahrenheit.
Formula: [°F] = [°C] × 9⁄5 + 32
What is 572 degrees Fahrenheit in Celsius?
57.2°F is equal to 14°C
The conversion formula is Celsius temperature = 5/9 x (Fahrenheit temperature - 32)
Why are bacterial cultures incubated at 37 degrees?
Bacterial cultures are incubated at 37 degrees Celsius because this temperature mimics the normal human body temperature, providing optimal conditions for bacterial growth and reproduction. Additionally, many human pathogens thrive at this temperature, making it ideal for culturing them in the laboratory.
What is 27 degrees Celsius in Fahrenheit -?
27 degrees Celsius is equal to 80.6 degrees Fahrenheit. This conversion can be done by using the formula: (Celsius temperature x 9/5) + 32 = Fahrenheit temperature.
How does dissolved CaCl2 affect the boiling temperature of water?
Adding dissolved CaCl2 to water increases the boiling point of the water. Calcium chloride dissociates into ions in the water, which disrupts the ability of water molecules to escape into the vapor phase during boiling, raising the boiling point.
What is the temperature in Celsius if the water is boiling?
The temperature in Celsius at which water boils is 100 degrees.
What is 97.5 degrees Fahrenheit in Celsius-?
If you convert 97.5 degrees Fahrenheit into Celsius you have 36.38 degrees Celsius.
36 degrees Fahrenheit would equals how much in F?
The temperature in degrees Fahrenheit does not change when converting from Fahrenheit to Fahrenheit. Therefore, 36 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to 36 degrees Fahrenheit.
How do you convert 23 degrees Fahrenheit to celsius?
Use this formula: [°C] = ([°F] − 32) × 5⁄9
23 degrees Fahrenheit = -5 degrees Celsius
Is it true that e freezing point of water can be lowered with the addition of salt?
Yes, adding salt to water lowers its freezing point. This occurs because the presence of salt disrupts the formation of ice crystals, requiring the temperature to be reduced further in order for the water to freeze.
What is Fahrenheit and Celsius based upon?
The celsius scale is a metric scale of temperature measurement. Unlike the Fahrenheit scale 0 degrees is freezing point and 100 degrees is the boiling point of water. The celsius scale is used anywhere the metric system is used. In addition to the Fahrenheit and celsius scale there is also the kelvin scale, used mainly only by scientists. Unlike other scales, on the kelvin scale 0 degrees is the lowest temperature possible (known as absolute zero and equivalent to -273 degrees in celsius) and there are therefore no negative readings.
Early thermometers (like the one Galileo invented) did not have any scale (markings with numbers) to determine precise temperature.
The 1st precise scale was developed by Anders Celsius in 1742. He used 'degree' as the unit of temperature. All of his standards for comparison to make his markings (on his scale) were based on the properties of water.
Ø 100o was assigned the temperature at which ice melts at sea level
Ø 0o was assigned the temperature at which liquid water boils at sea level
Ø The region between (above and below, as well) these two extremes was separated into 100 equal units (degrees)
In 1744, this was reversed to put the freezing point at 0C, and the boiling point at 100C. This is the scale in use today.
Ø The two fixed temperatures that Celsius chose can be used to calibrate a thermometer (p. 195)
How much is 950 million degree Fahrenheit equal to in degree celsius?
510 million degrees Celsius.
[°C] = ([°F] − 32) × 5⁄9
1700 degrees Fahrenheit is approximately 927 degrees Celsius.
Why do the temperatures very more in Gainesville Fla than in Miami?
Gainesville, Florida experiences more temperature variation compared to Miami due to its inland location, away from the moderating influence of the ocean. Gainesville's temperatures are influenced by continental air masses, resulting in more significant temperature fluctuations between seasons. In contrast, Miami's proximity to the ocean leads to more stable temperatures throughout the year due to the ocean's moderating effect.
Why is the boiling point of water 212 degrees on a Fahrenheit scale instead of 100?
The Fahrenheit scale was created before the Celsius scale, based on the freezing and boiling points of water. With the freezing point at 32°F and boiling point at 212°F, the scale was set to have 180 equally spaced intervals between freezing and boiling points. This set the boiling point of water at 212°F on the Fahrenheit scale.
What elements are liquids between 22 and 30 degrees celsius?
Mercury, Gallium, Caesium, Bromine and maybe Francium
