Hi Maria, For pure water, the boiling point is 100 degrees Celsius (212 Fahrenheit) at one atmosphere of pressure, and the melting point is 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) at one atmosphere of pressure. At lower pressures (at high altitudes, for example, in Denver, Colorado), the boiling point will be perhaps a couple of degrees lower.
What temperature does water boil at? Pure water boils at a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius, or 211.9 degrees Fahrenheit. This standard assumes an external atmospheric pressure of 1 bar or the standard pressure at sea level. According to About.com, changes in air pressure can raise or lower the boiling point of water.
