The boiling point of water would be highest at:
Correct answer: D. Gwadar
- A. Mount everest
- B. Siachen
- C. K2
- D. Gwadar
Explanation
Atmospheric Pressure is directly proportional to the Boiling Point of liquid.Gwadar is at sea level so it has highest value of boiling point of water.So here water boils at 1000C at 1 atm or 760torr.

About Evaporation, Boiling Point and Vapour Pressure
Evaporation is the escape of higher-energy molecules from a liquid surface, while vapour pressure is the pressure exerted by vapour in equilibrium with that liquid. The topic distinguishes evaporation from boiling and relates both to temperature, intermolecular forces, surface area, atmospheric pressure and the boiling point.
