So basically if I have a closed container with a valve, and inside the container there is water. Now i heat the container and boil the water. The valve is open so steam escapes form there. I now close the valve and cool the container causing the steam to condense inside. Inside the container is a vacuum now.
Will this vacuum cause the water to boil? Or will only so much steam have condensed, to create the exact pressure which matches the evaporation point of the water to that of the ambient temperature?
