Question

water boils at 100 degrees celsius at sea level. If the water in this experiment did not boil to 100 degrees celsius, what could the reason be?

Answer 1

the air pressure around the experiment is lower than at sea level

Answer 2

It depends on how high you are above sea level

Step-by-step explanation:

I did an experiment in my Scince class that showed, the less air that is around water will lessen it’s boiling level. We put water in a glass beaker inside of our vacuum chamber, we made a vacuum in he chamber. Making a vacuum is like being on a mountain, the less air the lower the boiling point. The water then began to boil due to the water evaporating. When we reached to maximum vacuum that we could the water started to boil at 61°C. No the water was not very hot, it was just warm water that just so happened to also be boiling, cool right!!! Anyways, we played with dry ice the next day.

Hoped this helped.
