At high altitudes, water boils at a lower temperature because
A
The atmospheric pressure is high at high altitudes
B
The viscosity of water is reduced at high altitudes
C
The atmospheric pressure is low at high altitudes
D
The surface tension of water is reduced at high altitudes.
Answer
The atmospheric pressure is low at high altitudes
