The Effect
of Salt on
the boiling Point of water? |
|
|
|
Introduction:
Common salt is used in winters for
melting ice because it modifies the freezing point of water. Can
salt also modify the boiling point of water? One problem with water
is that it never gets hotter than 100º Celsius. Any additional heat
will only cause more evaporation. Being able to control or modify
the boiling point of water may be helpful for any applications
requiring heat transfer.

In this project you will study the
effect of table salt on the boiling temperature of water. Report your
results in a table and draw a graph to visually display your results. |

Project
description:
This project will help you learn about the effects of salt
(and possibly some other chemicals) on the boiling point of water. Collect information,
run some experiments, record your observations
and draw a conclusion. Your display can show some of the practical
applications for changing the boiling point. |
