132. When you go to a higher altitude,
what happens to the boiling point of
water?
•Boiling point-
–Temperature at which the Vapor Pressure =
Atmospheric Pressure
•Vapor Pressure
–Pressure exerted by the gas when amount of
particles leaving the liquid is equal to the amount of
particles entering the liquid
• The higher the altitude, the less condensed the atoms are
therefore, the lower the atmospheric pressure.
