Answer to Question #194304 in Organic Chemistry for marisol

Question

At high altitudes, the ambient air pressure can be significantly less than 1 bar, so water boils at a lower temperature than 100 C. What is the boiling point of water at an altitude where the ambient air pressure is 0.46 bar? The enthalpy of vaporization of water near its boiling point is 40.7 kJ/mol.

Answer 1

Boiling point of water=127.8°C
