Beaker#1 has 100 mL of water and Beaker#2 has 500 mL of water. Both were heated to 100 oC and began to bubble at the same time. What does this experiment demonstrate?

Back

This experiment provides evidence that the boiling point is a property independent of the amount of water.

Front

Which would be the most useful for identifying an unknown substance?

Back

Density because it does not depend on sample size.
