If you compare the temperature that water boils at seal level and at 5000 feet, what is true? a. water boils at the same temperature at all elevations b. water boils at the same temperature at higher elevations but the specific heat capacity is less at higher elevations c. water boils at a higher temperature at higher elevations d. water boils at a lower temperature at higher elevations
9. Which one of the following properties of matter is WRONG Select one: a. Water boils at 100°C at sea level - extensive property O The density of gold at 20°C is 19.35 g/mL-intensive property c At room temperature, hydrogen p oxide decomposes - chemical property d. CH is combustible-chemical property e Copper is ductile-physical property CC-TDI
Problem 8 Because pressure falls with increasing altitude, water also boils at a lower temperature. Consequently, food generally require more time to cook at higher elevations. Determine the boiling temperature of water at sea-level, 1000 m, and 2000 m above sea-level. Assume standard atmospheric conditions.
16. At a high altitude water boils at 95°C instead of 100°C as at sea level because A) the atmospheric pressure is greater. B) the atmospheric pressure is less. C) the climate is cooler. D) the vapor pressure of water is greater
The mile high city of Denver, Colorado is at an altitude of 1600 m above sea-level. (a) Make the assumption that the density of air (1.2 kg/m3 ) is constant versus height to estimate the air pressure in Denver. (b) You decide to impress your Rocky Mountain friends by showing how you can use a long straw. How low does the pressure need to be in your lungs to use a straw that is 1.5 m long (assume you are...
8. While methanol boils at a temperature of 65 °C, water boils at a temperature of 100 °C. What is the best explanation for the higher boiling point of water? A Dispersion forces and dipole-dipole forces, but not hydrogen bonding B. Dipole-dipole forces, but not hydrogen bonding C. Dispersion forces and hydrogen bonding D. Dispersion forces E. Hydrogen bonding
At sea level, water boils at 100 °C, and the absolute atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. As the atmospheric pressure above water decreases, the temperature required for boiling also decreases, at a rate of 3.1 kPa per "C. For the system shown below: a. What is the absolute atmospheric pressure at an elevation of 4100 m, assuming a constant unit weight of air of 11.80 N/m3? b. What will be the boiling temperature for water at this elevation? Elev. =...

Question 1 Hiking up the Drakensburg mountains to Champagne Castle is a popular outdoor activity in South Afnca Mafadi is the highest mountain in the countray at 3377m Take the ground temperature to be 20 c, gas constant to be 287 jkg K and the temperature lapse rate to be 0.0065 K/m. 21 It is known that the nsk of hypothermia is significantly higher when temperatures are below freezing (Le 0°C) Are the risk of hypothermia apparent when attempting to...
The water in a pressure cooker boils at a temperature greater than 100°C because it is under pressure. At this higher temperature, the chemical reactions associated with the cooking of food take place at a greater rate. (a) Some food cooks fully in 7.00 min in a pressure cooker at 120.0°C and in 70.0 minutes in an open pot at 100.0°C. Calculate the average activation energy for the reactions associated with the cooking of this food. kJ mol-1 (b) How...
