If you boiled water at the top of a mountain, would you expect it to boil at 100 degrees Celsius and why?

1 Answer

The boiling point is less than 100 degree Celsius

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure in high altitudes are low when compared to the atmospheric pressure in sea level (10N/#m^2#)

At higher altitude, the pressure exerted at equilibrium is lower when compared to sea level. so the energy needed to boil is less when compared to the sea level.
