Regarding the boiling point of liquids
Thread Content
The boiling point of a liquid is defined as the temperature at which its saturated vapor pressure equals the external pressure. So, if a liquid is heated in a sealed container, it will never boil, right? Is it because in a sealed environment the total internal pressure always remains higher than the saturated vapor pressure of the liquid?
I guess so, just like a pressure cooker.
It won’t boil; it will explode
