When the external pressure is 101.3 kPa torr, water will boil at what temperature? 1) 12.8°C 2) 14.5°C 3) 100°C 4) 18°C
3) 100°C Use Reference Table H. When the vapor pressure of water is 101.3 kPa, the temperature on Table H is 100°C. When the atmospheric pressure above a liquid equals its vapor pressure, the liquid will boil. If the vapor pressure was 50 kPa, water would boil at about 82°C.
