This has been asked over and over recently. Is this part of an exam or a class?\n\nBoiling point decreases with altitude because there is less pressure. The water will boil when the vapor pressure equals the air pressure. \n\nBaguio city is about 1500-1600 meters above sea level, making its temperatures roughly 8 degrees C less than the sea level areas of the Phillipines. For every 1000 feet in elevation, the boiling point of water decreases about 1 degree C. Very roughly, Baguio city is at 4500 feet elevation. The boiling point of water at Baguio city should be about 4.5 degrees C less than 100 degrees C, or 95.5 degrees C.

water "boils" when the Kinetic energy (energy of motion and heat) cause the molecules of water to expand or separate far enough away that it changes from a liquid to a gas. The greater the force keeping the molecules together, the more energy it needs. On Earth, the force is air pressure. At sea level where the pressure is greatest, water boils at about 100 degrees Celsius. Up in the mountains at 7000 feet it would boil at 80 -90 degrees or even less. In space even the smallest amount of energy would cause it to "boil".\nIt takes one calorie to raise one gram of water one degree Celsius. If you trap the water in a container, you can get the heat of the water much higher than the boiling point. But it could explode if the container is too weak to handle the pressure. So don't try it.

Sea water being salty, is not drinkabl. With the peoper apparatus, you can ue the sun to evaporate the sea water. Then you have to catch it as it condenses. The salt does not evaporate.Now it is drinkable.  Mineral water essentially is water from the ground that has minerals from the earth dissolved in it. When this is evaporated the minerals do not evaporate either. You can get drinkable water from sea water, but not mineral water.

Water is denser than air and transfers heat more rapidly.

filled with gas or water.  otherwise it sinks (see maracaibo city in venezuela, some parts currently 2m below sea level due to sinking)

just pour water over the top when its really heated..lol

at sea level water boils at 100 deg C\nat elevation like up a mountain it will boil at a lower temp because the pressure is lower. I think water boils at about 70 deg C on everest.

Not sure, but I know La Paz (capital of Bolivia) is 4000m about sea level because I was there and had really bad altitude sickness!

Water that is evaporating is not the same as water boiling. evaporation is the loss water from the surface that is still water in very small amounts that become suspended in the air. Boiling that occurs at 100c is a state change in the water where the bonds in the water lattice have been broken. The steam then coming in contact with the cooler surrounding air then rapidly cools and forms water droplets on cooler surfaces or in the air and just like fog is a saturation of the air with water and you can see it so you also can see the steam re condensing into water in the air.

henryclayc1949 has the most compelling answer, in my opinion. I thought I would add just a bit more to help.  \n\nTap water, and in fact most water that one encounters, has dissolved gases in it, which are liberated as the solubility of air decreases as the water warms up (this is one of the things that is such a concern about the greenhouse effect; as the ocean warms, extra carbon dioxide  will come out of solution in the ocean). \n\nAs the water gets warmer, some vaporizes, forming water vapor bubbles. The pressure in the water vapor bubbles has to exceed the pressure of their surroundings to survive. On the bottom of the container, the vapor pressure in the bubbles has to exceed the pressure at that location. At the top of the container, the required vapor pressure is less, obviously. \n\nThis is less energy (and therefore temperature) is required to boil water on top of a mountain than at sea level.

I believe that you mean water boiling at a lower-than-normal temperature when the atmospheric pressure is lower, such as at high altitudes........if this is what you meant, water boils when the 'vapor pressure' of the water, which is the amount of liquid water which evaporates into the air and which rises with temperature, becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure.  If you are in Colorado, for example, there is just less air to push against the top of the water, so it will boil off with less heat to push it out.
