The Boiling Point of Alcohol: Implications One practical application of the different boiling points of alcohols andalcoholwith respect to water and other liquids is that it can be used to separate them usingdistillation. In the process of distillation, a liquid is carefully heated so that more v...
The boiling point for any material is the temperature point at which the material transforms into the gas phase in the liquid phase. This happens at 100 degrees centigrade for water. TheCelsius scalewas in fact created on the basis of the ice/water melting point and the liquid water/vapor ...
