Which water will start to boil first?
Two identical pots of water, one in Miami, one in Denver, are placed on identical stoves and identical eggs are dropped in at the same time. Which water will start to boil first? Which egg will finish cooking first?
This is from a “Wet Dry Ice Lab,” where the basic concept of the lab was to learn that different substances achieve different states of matter depending on its temperature and pressure. But I’m failing to understand this question… however simple or complicated it may be…
Miami – approx sea level
Denver – approx 5000 ft
Therefore, the atmos pressure is lower in Denver
This relates to water boiling @ 212F in Miami and @ 209F(approx) in Denver
This means that water at a higher elevation comes to a boil faster, but that is because its boiling point is lower.
So, the egg will cook faster in miami as the water temp is slightly higher.
Hope this helps
