Re: The Boiling Point

To my surprise, the thin fluid was boiling already at 99C. And as the sauce thickened, the temperature continually transitioned downward until the sauce was ready - i.e. the consistency of barbecue sauce, because that's what it was now - still bubbling at 84C. When I agitated the probe, mixing it well into the steam bubbles at the bottom of the pot, the reading would tend to decrease rather than increase.
I live at sea level and my electronic thermometer is well calibrated within 1. Boiling tap water reads exactly 100 on the device. I've made both caramel and marmelade successfully, where with removal of water we observe the temperature rise above the boiling point of water as the solution or colloid thickens. I have never monitored a salt solution although I understand from general principles, that we would observe the temperature rise until crystals came out of solution.
There is a well known physical chemistry effect when you boil two immiscible liquids, such as water and fatty acids (from pork). The vapor pressure of the mixture corresponds to the sum of the vapor pressures of the individual components. Assuming that the vapor pressure of the water in the barbecue sauce is 700 mm Hg at the same time that the vapor pressure of the fatty acids in the barbecue sauce is 60 mm Hg, the mixture will boil. Obviously, this boiling point is below 100 deg C. A bit more detail on this process can be found at _Chp01m.htm
If I had to guess at first glance it appears you maybe generating alcohol as a result of your process. Ethanol has a boiling point just below the 84C you are seeing, and it's likely you are generating some during your overnight settling process. Tomato wine is actually fairly common and you can find different recipes online. Although you do not list yeast as part of your ingredients, it is possible you are getting enough natural yeast reacting to the natural sugar in your tomatos and the extra sugar you are adding. Although I would normally expect all the alcohol to have evaporated early in the boiling process, it is possible that some is formed late as you boil down, or there is some entrained deep in the tomato sauce and is only released late in the boil.
The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the surrounding atmospheric pressure, thus facilitating transition of the material between gaseous and liquid phases. All boiling points below are normal/atmospheric boiling points: they give the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to atmospheric pressure at sea level, 1 atm.

The answer lies in monitoring the temperature of the material with time. When the boiling point is reached, the temperature will not rise again until all of the liquid has evaporated. This is due to the high heat capacity of water (it takes much more energy to convert water from liquid to gas than it does to raise the temperature of liquid water).
Of course, if water is heated under pressure this may raise the boiling point above its normal boiling point of 100 degrees C. Likewise, the addition of a solute may also raise the boiling point, a phenomenon called boiling point elevation (see Further Reading below for more information).
Not all substances have a boiling point. Some substances may decompose into other materials when heated instead of boiling. Wood does not boil, and neither does calcium carbonate, which decomposes to calcium oxide and carbon dioxide when heated. Other substances, such as solid carbon dioxide, may sublime to give gases without ever forming a liquid under normal conditions. However, under higher pressure, carbon dioxide will turn to liquid and then boil as the temperature is raised. Therefore, it is a best scientific practice to always report the external pressure when reporting a boiling point.
Knowing the boiling point of a substance is an important consideration for storage. For example, storing a chemical with a boiling point of 50 oC (122 oF) in direct sunlight or next to a boiler could cause the material to completely vaporize and/or result in a fire or explosion.
Items with a low boiling point generally have a high vapor pressure. Containers of such material can build up signicant pressure even when they are below their boiling point. Likewise, low-boiling materials easily produce large amounts of vapor which can be flammable or even explosive.
BROOKE GLADSTONE At this point, you've compiled about fifty-six thousand tweets, about 15 cases of mostly white women calling the police on black people from what you call - living while black.
BROOKE GLADSTONE About these memes, is the point here that they're forcing people to recognize that race is at the heart of each of these incidents? Not a marginal issue. It is the only real issue.
JESSIE DANIELS There's real deadly power in a white woman calling 911 or pointing her finger at a person of color saying he's the one that did it. And that really connects to a much longer history in the United States. I mean, we could go all the way back to slavery, but I think most people have a more recent memory of someone like Carolyn Bryant, who pointed a finger at Emmett Till and got him quite literally killed, brutally so, and then many decades later recanted, said it didn't happen. And that specific kind of power, I think, really hasn't been examined thoroughly.
And so you're not going to police everything, so you have to make examples of people. And when it's so egregious and actually has a potential to suppress voting or to cause health damage, it's your duty as a company to point it out.
Recently, an interest has developed in designing biomaterials for medical ultrasonics that can provide the acoustic activity of microbubbles, but with improved stability in vivo and a smaller size distribution for extravascular interrogation. One proposed alternative is the phase-change contrast agent. Phase-change contrast agents (PCCAs) consist of perfluorocarbons (PFCs) that are initially in liquid form, but can then be vaporized with acoustic energy. Crucial parameters for PCCAs include their sensitivity to acoustic energy, their size distribution, and their stability, and this manuscript provides insight into the custom design of PCCAs for balancing these parameters. Specifically, the relationship between size, thermal stability and sensitivity to ultrasound as a function of PFC boiling point and ambient temperature is illustrated. Emulsion stability and sensitivity can be 'tuned' by mixing PFCs in the gaseous state prior to condensation. Novel observations illustrate that stable droplets can be generated from PFCs with extremely low boiling points, such as octafluoropropane (b.p. -36.7 C), which can be vaporized with acoustic parameters lower than previously observed. Results demonstrate the potential for low boiling point PFCs as a useful new class of compounds for activatable agents, which can be tailored to the desired application.
This model allows you to explore why polar and non-polar substances have very different boiling points. While all molecules are attracted to each other, some attractions are stronger than others. Non-polar molecules are attracted through a London dispersion attraction; polar molecules are attracted through both the London dispersion force and the stronger dipole-dipole attraction. The force of attractions between molecules has consequences for their interactions in physical, chemical and biological applications.
Lowering the vapor pressure of a substance has an obvious effecton boiling point; the boiling point goes up. The BP increases becausemore energy is required for the solvent's vapor pressure to reach theexternal pressure.
The logic/picture which was used to explain vapor pressurelowering can be used to explain the change in boiling point. Thereare fewer solvent molecules at the surface capable of vaporizing sothe vapor pressure drops. Thus, the temperature of the boiling pointmust be increased.
At the freezing point the rate at which the solid melts is equalto the rate at which the liquid freezes A. If a solute isintroduced the rate at which the solid melts does not change, butsince there are fewer liquid molecules next to the solid the rate atwhich the liquid freezes drops--(B) three molecules melt andonly one freezes--there is no longer an equilibrium and the solidmelts. To reestablish the equilibrium the rate at which the solidmelts must be lowered; i.e., the temperature must be lowered.
A simple way to remember this is that the for the freezing depression is the amount the freezing point isdepressed (or lowered), and the for boiling point elevation is the amount the boiling point iselevated (or raised). If you remember the direction then dealing withthe signs is easy.
