Boiling point liquid is the highest temperature (and pressure) it will actually boil at. See also Vapour pressure of water. The element with the lowest boiling point is helium. Both the boiling points of rhenium and tungsten exceed 5000 K at standard pressure; because it is difficult to measure extreme temperatures precisely without bias, both have been cited in the literature as having the higher boiling point. As can be seen from the above plot of the logarithm of the vapor pressure vs. the temperature for any given pure chemical compound, its normal boiling point can serve as an indication of that
The Elements of Style "a splendid trophy for all who are interested in reading and writing." American poet Dorothy Parker once proclaimedIf you have any young friends who aspire to become writers, the second-greatest favor you can do them is to present them with copies of "The Elements of Style". The first-greatest, of course, is to shoot them now, while they’re happy. Criticism of "Strunk & White" has largely focused on claims that it has a prescriptivist nature, or that it has become a general anachronism in the face of modern English usage. In criticizing "The Elements of Style", Geoffrey Pullum, professor of linguistics
