Water at 170°F in a beaker is placed within an airtight container, Air is gradually pumped out of the
container. What reduction below standard atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psia must be achieved before the
water boils?
Table A.1 at 70°F: p, = 5.99 psia
14,7 ~ 5.99 = 8.71 psi; the pressure must be reduced by 8.71 psi
‘At approximately what temperature will water boil on top of Mount Kilimanjaro (elevation 5895 m)? Refer

‘Table A.3, by interpolation: py = 47.934 kPa abs at 5895 m elevation.
‘Teble A.A, by interpolation: p, of water = 47.934 kPa abs at about 80.26°C.
So water will boil there at about 80.3°C
