Question

The boiling point of water is ..................

A.

at 0° atmospheric pressure

B.

100° C

C.

273 K at atmospheric pressure

D.

0 K at atmospheric pressure

Correct option is B

The correct answer is (b) 100°C

The boiling point of water at standard atmospheric pressure (1 atm or 101.3 kPa) is 100°C. At this temperature, water transitions from the liquid phase to the gaseous phase.

Additional Information:

  • Kelvin is the base unit of temperature in the SI system.
  • Atmospheric pressure is the force exerted on a surface by the air above it as gravity pulls it to Earth.
    • It is commonly measured with a barometer.
  • Fahrenheit Conversion:
    Using the relation F = (9/5)C + 32, the boiling point of water is 212°F (at standard atmospheric pressure).
