Is it possible to boil water at room temperature, say 30°C? If we touch a flask containing water boiling at this temperature, will it be hot?
Ans : Yes, it is possible to boil water at 30⁰C by reducing the external pressure. A liquid boils when its vapour pressure equals external pressure. By lowering the external pressure, it is possible to boil the liquid at low temperatures.
No, the flask containing water boiling at 30⁰C will not be hot.
