词条 | boiling point |
释义 | boiling point chemistry ![]() At any temperature a liquid partly vaporizes into the space above it until the pressure exerted by the vapour reaches a characteristic value called the vapour pressure of the liquid at that temperature. As the temperature is increased, the vapour pressure increases; at the boiling point, bubbles of vapour form within the liquid and rise to the surface. The boiling point of a liquid varies according to the applied pressure; the normal boiling point is the temperature at which the vapour pressure is equal to the standard sea-level atmospheric pressure (760 mm 【29.92 inches】 of mercury). At sea level, water boils at 100° C (212° F). At higher altitudes the temperature of the boiling point is lower. See also vaporization. |
