" Does blood actually boil and if so at what temperature? Disclaimer : This is a genuine question and is not an attempt at a humourless humorous post. Blood boils at 100c (212F) because it is almost all water." I think you're wrong, and blood will boil a at temperature higher than that of pure water, due to the solutes that are in the largely water based liquid (blood) - it's over 50% water, the rest being solutes and proteins etc, the blood cells. My guess is that the temperature will be within 1 degree Celsius of water, so c. 101 degrees. There isn't tons of Sodium Chloride in healthy blood - common salt - which would raise it significantly, if it was there, but there is some, and there are other salts too. | |||

"Its above 100C but only by about 0.5C at most, blood has a lot of solutes but most in low concentrations and it takes an awful lot to raise the boiling point of water." Current air pressure is critical as even at sea level the variation in air pressure within normal weather patterns can shift waters boiling point by a degree or so. Move to significant altitude and the boiling temperature plummets. | |||
