Boiling point of Water

Boiling point of water is the temperature at which the liquid water becomes water vapor. The boiling point of water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit using Fahrenheit to Celsius conversion (100 degrees Celsius). The boiling point of water is also known as the “saturation temperature.”

Boiling Point Formula

The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the substance changes state from liquid state to gas state. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending on the surrounding atmospheric pressure, but it is usually close to the melting point of the solid form of the same substance.

How is Boiling Point Determined?

Boiling point of a substance can be determined by using a Boiling Point Apparatus. This method uses the fact that liquids boil when their vapor pressure equals the atmospheric pressure. The apparatus consists of a container of liquid, a heater, and a mercury manometer. First, the liquid is placed in the container and heated until its vapors fill the container. The mercury manometer is then used to measure the atmospheric pressure inside the container. When the mercury column in the manometer reaches the same level as the liquid in the container, this indicates that the vapors have reached atmospheric pressure and the boiling point has been reached....
