Cities	p in N/m2
Shimla	1.01×105
Bangalore	1.2×105
Delhi	1.02×105
Mumbai	1.21×105

 Consider the above data and mark the place at which liquid will boil first.

(iv) Mumbai

<p><span data-teams="true">This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar</span></p><p>option (i). Shimla&nbsp;</p><p>The temperature at which the liquid boils when the vapour pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure&nbsp; is known as the boiling point of the liquid. When the&nbsp; atmospheric pressure is low, the boiling point of the liquid will be low. As Shimla has the lowest atmospheric pressure, it will boil first.</p>
