At Muree hills the pressure of air is 700 which is less than 760 torr so water boils at 98 degree centigrade and at Mount everest pressure further decreases and water boils at 69 degree centigrade

As increase in altitude decreases atmospheric pressure so liquids boil at low temperature.The atmospheric pressure at mount Everest (8850m above sea level) is 34kpa therefore,waters boils at 70c.While,vapour pressure at murree(2291m above sea level) is 82kpa so,boiling point is 98c.

Why is the boiling point of water different on mount Everest and in room temperature?
The boiling point of water changes with altitude. While it boils at 100C at sea level, at the summit of Mount Everest water would boil at a lower temperature of 72C.
What cause the temperature of the boiling point at the top of mount Everest different from the boiling point of pure water?
Pressure is much lower at the top of Mount Everest. PV=nRT. If pressure, P, goes down, then T, temperature, goes down. More temperature must be added.
Where would it take longer for an egg to cook Death Valley or Mount Everest?
The boiling point of water is dependent on the air pressure or altitude. On Mount Everest the boiling point of water is 69 0C.
What is the boiling point of pure water on top of mount Everest?
1800degrees celsius
What is boiling point if mount Everest and normal water?
The boiling point of water changes with altitude. While it boils at 100C at sea level, at the summit of Mount Everest water would boil at a lower temperature of 72C.
What do Mount Rushmore and Mount Everest have the same?
they are different
Why is there a difference in boiling points on mount Everest and room temperature?
The boiling point on Mount Everest - whether at its base or on its summit - is the boiling point of water at different pressures. Within the relevant range of atmospheric pressure, the boining point ranges from around 100 deg C to 70 deg C.Water does not boil at room temperature and so the comparison is somewhat nonsensical.
Why is Mount Everest not called the Mount Everest?
There are different names used for Mount Everest. The Western world tend to call it Mount Everest. The official Nepalese name for Mount Everest is Sagarmatha which means 'Mother of the Universe' The official Tibetan name for Mount Everest is Qomolangma or Chomolungma which means 'Goddess Mother of the World'
