Oil can indeed boil at low pressure, similar to water in a vacuum jar. The boiling point of oil decreases as the pressure decreases, allowing it to transition from liquid to vapor at lower temperatures. This phenomenon is due to the relationship between vapor pressure and temperature, which applies to all liquids, including various types of oil. Therefore, using a vacuum jar can facilitate the boiling of oil at temperatures lower than its standard boiling point.

What do you think and why?dilipbhanu said:Hi,
We have seen water boiling at low pressures (vacuum jars), Will Oil also boil the same way in vacuum jar?
