As the altitude increases, the boiling point of water decreases. For instance, at an altitude of 5000 feet, water boils at about 202.8 F. (a) Find a linear equation giving the boiling point of water in terms of altitude. (b) At what temperature does water boil at the top of Mt. Everest (altitude 29,029 feet)?
The vapor pressure of water at 100 oC is 101 kN/m2, because water boils under these conditions. The vapor pressure of water decreases approximately linearly with decreasing temperature at a rate of 3.1 kN/m2/oC. Calculate the boiling temperature of water at an altitude of 3000 m, where the atmospheric pressure is 69 kN/m2 absolute.

The vapor pressure of water decreases approximately linearly with decreasing temperature at a rate of 3.1 kN/m 2 /°C. Calculate the boiling temperature of water at an altitude of 3000 m, where the atmospheric pressure is 69 kN/m 2 absolute
“We know that at a pressure of 1 atm, water boils at a temperature of 373K. Assuming that the Clausius-Clapeyron relation holds, and using your answer from part A (L=6.75*10^-20 J/molecule), calculate the temperature inside a pressure cooker operating at a pressure of 2 atm.”
On a new temperature scale (°Y), water boils at 155.0 °Y and freezes at 0.00 °Y. Calculate the normal human body temperature using this temperature scale. On the Fahrenheit scale, normal human body temperature is 98.6 8F, and water boils at 212.0 °F and freezes at 32.0 °F.
The temperature at which water boils is affected by the difference in atmospheric pressure at different altitudes above sea level. The classic cookbook The Joy of Cooking by Irma S. Rombauer and Marion Rombauer Becker gives the data in the accompanying table (rounded to the nearest degree) on the boiling temperature of water at different ...
The temperature at which water boils is called its boiling point and is linearly related to the altitude. Water boils at 212 0 F at sea level and 193.6 0 at an altitude of 10,000 feet. (Source: biggreen.com) (5 pts.)
Answer: c. stays constant Explanation: When water boils, its temperature remains constant at 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) until all the water has been converted into steam. This is because the energy being supplied to the water is used to break the hydrogen bonds between the water molecules rather than increasing the temperature ...
Boiling point. The temperature at which water starts to boil is called its boiling point and is linearly related to the altitude. Water boils at 212°F at sea level and at 193.6°F at an altitude of 10,000 feet. (Source: biggreenegg.com) (A) Find a relationship of the form where T is degrees Fahrenheit and x is altitude in thousands of feet.
The temperature T(F) at which water boils at selected pressures p (pounds per square inch) can be modeled by T= 87.97+34.96lnp+7.91root(p) Find the rate of change of the temperature when the pressure is 70 pounds per square inch.
