Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason as to why it takes longer to hard boil an egg in Denver than in Los Angeles is to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
Water starts boiling at a temperature when the vapor pressure of the water is equal to the pressure of the atmosphere. At high temperature, the vapor pressure also increases.
