If so why? Why doesn't it being purifies make a difference?

The bubbles form on particulate matter or knicks in the surface of the container. That's why you see the bubbles forming in the same spot when water is beginning to boil. If you put distilled water in a smooth, clear container & then put it in the microwave for a long period of time it won't boil. But if you take it out of the microwave then stick something in it like a fork, it might explode.

Atmospheric pressure counts also!!! So consider the height above sea level. Filtered water usually will not alter the time to boil water unless it really does remove impurities like reverse osmosis.

Most filters only remove particles and organic residue or taste, dissolved impurities are really hard to remove through filtration. So you're chances are filtered water will not alter boiling time.

For instance, salty water boils faster than purified or not salted water. However, you can not remove dissolved salt through filtration, you will need reverse osmosis to be able to remove the dissolved minerals.

The water keeps to be warmer longer whilst that's boiled on the range because of the fact the metallic pot that includes the water is likewise conserving warmth. on the grounds which you microwave water in plastic containers which lose the warmth greater quickly than pots, the water cools swifter. without the field in the equation, the water could lose warmth on the comparable fee.

Its a good question but I don't the experiment of which boils fastest assumes equally pure water.

Scientists still can't agree on how it happens. Its called the Mpemba effect
