प्रश्न
Water boils at 120 °C in a pressure cooker. Explain the reason
उत्तर
- The boiling point of a liquid increases with the increase in pressure and decreases with the decrease in pressure.
- The boiling point of pure water at one atmospheric pressure (= 760 mm of Hg) is 100 °C.
- In a pressure cooker, the water boils at about 120 °C to 125 °C due to increase in pressure, as the steam is not allowed to escape out of it.
