The higher the pressure, the higher boiling point of water. At lower the pressure, the boiling point of water comes down. So, the lower pressure inreases the boiling resulting more evaporation. As we go higher in altitude, the atmospheric pressure decreases. This results in decreasing the boiling point at higher altitude and increase in boiling of water. In fact, at the sea level ,the the sea water boils at 100 degree C where atmospheric pressre is normal. However , the boiling takes place at a lower temperature at the top of a mountain due to low pressure. In other words the boling is faster at the top of a mountain than that at its foot.

As you climb higher up a mountain, the atmospheric pressure reduces which lowers the boiling point of water.

The boiling point of water increases with increase in pressure. Pressure is defined as force per unit area and it increases with increase in depth and decreases with decrease in depth.

P = ρgh

where;

  • ρ is the density of the water
  • g is acceleration due to the gravity
  • h is depth

The atmospheric pressure on mountains is very low. A low atmospheric pressure lowers the boiling point of water.

Thus, we can conclude that as you climb higher up a mountain, the atmospheric pressure reduces which lowers the boiling point of water.
