Question

How Does The Elevation And Air Pressure Affect The Boiling Point Of Water?

Answer 1

When atmospheric pressure increases, the boiling point becomes higher, and when atmospheric pressure decreases (as it does when elevation increases), the boiling point becomes lower. ... Aspressure increases, water molecules need additional heat to gain the speed necessary for escape.
