Boiling water. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid and the liquid changes into a vapor.imilarly, a liquid at saturation pressure and temperature will tend to flash into its vapor phase as system pressure is decreased. There are two conventions regarding the standard boiling point of water: The normal boiling point is 99.97 Â°C (211.9 Â°F) at a pressure of 1 atm (i.e., 101.325 kPa).
Conventionally, the water temperature at which water boils is considered to be 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degress Fahrenheit. However, these numbers are only valid at sea level. As barometric pressure changes so too does the boiling point of water. For instance, as elevation increases the boiling point lowers. On the top of Mount Everest, for example, boiling water is possible at a water temperature of 68 degrees Celsius or 154 degrees Fahrenheit. Conversely, in deep ocean vents, water can be much hotter than that without boiling.
