Under normal circumstances this will burn and damage the root system of the plant, possibly severely enough to kill it.

Some plants are more tolerant though to hot water and can survive fairly high water temperatures

Yes you can, but it can affect the plant growth, because imagine that you water the plant with Sprite, then the sugar in that will surely kill the plant. But then again water or rain is the best way to water a plant.

No it could burn the plant's roots, which would kill the plant. I do not think it is a good idea. Please do not try. SAVE THE PLANTS!

Also, cold water isn't good for the plants either. NEVER put ice in with your plant.

The best you can give them is room-temperature, or even (ever so slightly) cool water (on hot days). Think what temperature you can comfortably drink; same goes with the plant.

I think the question relates more to slightly heated water than boiling water. Boiling water would simply scald the plant, burn the roots and kill the plant - this method is sometimes employed to kill weeds (in small areas).

Boiled water that is then cooled has lower levels of oxygen in it (due to the boiling), as this is one way in which oxygen is introduced into the soil and ultimately the plant, it could have slight negative effects on sustained plant growth.

Slightly warmed water can be beneficial as long as it is under 30 degrees Centigrade. Warmed water is sometimes used in cooler climates to speed the growth of plants during winter.
