The answer will depend on the units for the temperature.
It would take 1 ton of water to create 1 ton of steam.
The answer will depend on the starting temperature of the water. It will also depend on the pressure.
Steam is nothing but a homogeneous mixture of water & air
Steam with a dryness fraction of 0.504 consists of 50.4% steam and 49.6% water.
Roughly 4.18400 joules Raising 1 gram of water 1 degree c requires 1 calorie (the definition of calorie includes the actual starting temperature, I think something like 3 degrees celsius). 1 calorie = 4.18400 joules
In order for a high temperature boiler or steam engine to produce superheated water, or steam?
Different individuals usually shower at different water temperatures. A steam shower unit does not have one water temperature. The temperature of the water in a steam shower unit varies, as the temperature may be controlled by a number of factors. Some of the steam shower units come equipped with a temperature gauge, so the individual may set the temperature to a specific degree.
The temperature of steam depends on the pressure of the system. Higher pressure steam can get super hot. Steam at atm is around 212 degree F, like boiling water.
The temperature of steam from a kettle is typically around 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at sea level, which is the boiling point of water.
No, steam and water vapor are actually the same substance, which is gaseous water. However, steam is typically used to refer to water vapor that is hot and at a high temperature, while water vapor can be at any temperature.
if you are saying 135 Fahrenheit. No such thing as 135 degree steam. 212 at sea level is the beginning of boiling and it will take more than that to produce steam. To produce visible water vapor takes a lot less heat but viruses & bacteria might not be completely killed by water vapor
No, salt does not affect the temperature of steam. Adding salt to water increases the boiling point of the water, but once the water has turned into steam, the temperature of the steam remains the same.
At normal pressure steam changes to liquid water at 212 degree F.
Just evaporate water, and the vapour is steam.
Water is boiling when it reaches a temperature of 212 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Celsius) and starts to produce bubbles and steam.
It really depends on the temperature of the steam and temperature of the cold surface. 250 degree steam hitting a 50 or 60 degree surface will just turn back into water and droplets can be seen almost immediately. 1000+ degree steam hitting a frozen surface may cause a loud bang and eventually turn back into water.
In order to turn from water to steam, the liquid must absorb a large amount of energy. Even though they may be the same temperature, this extra energy means the steam can cause a more severe burn.
