A pressure cooker reduces cooking time for food because

Options

  1. Aboiling point of water involved in cooking is increased
  2. Bthe higher pressure inside the cooker crushes the food material
  3. Ccooking involves chemical changes helped by a rise in temperature
  4. Dheat is more evenly distributed in the cooking space

Correct answer

A. boiling point of water involved in cooking is increased

Step-by-step solution

On increasing pressure, the temperature is also increased. Thus in pressure cooker due to increase in pressure the b.p. of water increases.
