The boiling point of water changes with altitude. While it boils at 100C at sea level, at the summit of Mount Everest water would boil at a lower temperature of 72C.

What cause the temperature of the boiling point at the top of mount Everest different from the boiling point of pure water?

Pressure is much lower at the top of Mount Everest. PV=nRT. If pressure, P, goes down, then T, temperature, goes down. More temperature must be added.


Why is there a difference in boiling points on mount Everest and room temperature?

The boiling point on Mount Everest - whether at its base or on its summit - is the boiling point of water at different pressures. Within the relevant range of atmospheric pressure, the boining point ranges from around 100 deg C to 70 deg C.Water does not boil at room temperature and so the comparison is somewhat nonsensical.


Where would it take longer for an egg to cook Death Valley or Mount Everest?

It would take longer for an egg to cook on Mount Everest due to the higher altitude and lower boiling point of water, which would result in lower cooking temperatures. In Death Valley, the higher temperatures would lead to faster cooking times despite the extreme heat.

What is the boiling temperature of water on mount Everest?

The boiling point of water is 100 °C (212 °F) at standard pressure. On top of Mount Everest the pressure is about 260 mbar (26.39 kPa) so the boiling point of water is 69 °C. (156.2 °F). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_point
