The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor. The boiling point of a ...

In this month's Weather Experiment Wednesday, we are looking at how pressure can change the boiling point of water. We took two identical beakers with the same temperature water inside. One beaker we ...
