Chapter 10, Problem 26QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the boiling point of water in the Death Valley, at an altitude of 86m below the sea level, is above or below 100°C , is to be identified.

Concept Introduction:

Vapor pressure is the measure of the tendency of a material to change into the gaseous state. It increases with temperature.

Boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the vapor pressure at the surface of a liquid becomes equal to the pressure surrounding the liquid.

3. Think aboutthe definition of boiling point when answering this question.A certain liquid boils at 250oC at room pressure, 1 atmosphere = 760 torr. If we set up the distillation apparatus to distill this liquid, and attach a vacuum pump so the pressure in the apparatus is 10 torr, will the liquid boil at 250oC, at a lower temperature, or at a higher temperature?Explain.
