Boiling point dropped 11.7°C
Boiling water at different altitudes on Kilimanjaro showed a temperature drop from 92.7°C at 8,170 ft to 81.0°C at 19,341 ft. The experiment confirmed that water boils at lower temperatures at higher elevations due to decreased atmospheric pressure.
- 🌡️ Boiling point decreased by 11.7°C from base camp to the summit.
- ⛰️ The hike traversed multiple ecological zones, from rainforest to alpine desert.
- 🫁 Pulse oximeter readings showed oxygen saturation dropping significantly at higher altitudes.
- ⚠️ Altitude sickness is a serious risk, with guides managing pace and health closely.
- 🚶 Guides emphasized 'Pole, pole' (slowly, slowly) to aid acclimatization.
