No! Technically, it can turn to steam, but the water itself can not become hotter than its boiling point.
The above is true. But ...
Remember that the boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which the saturated vapour pressure is equal to the applied pressure. Increase the pressure and the boiling point will rise. If the questioner meant the boiling point at normal atomospheric presure then you could make it boil at a higher temperature by heating it in a pressure vessel with a release valve, such as in an old-fashioned presure cooker.

the above is nonsense. the maximum temperature of water is 100 celsius but not more than that. the energy is used to break the connection between the water molecules, in other words, evaporate and boil.

∙ 11y agoNo, or not at least at normal atmospheric pressure. Though you can get it hotter in say a pressure cooker. Great question!

∙ 13y agoWater, while in its liquid form, will not typically get hotter than its boiling point. Then, it turns into steam.

What layer of the earth is five times as hotter than boiling water?
No se?
If you have five drops of boiling water and five gallons of boiling water which is hotter?
they are both equally hot, but the5 gallons of boiling water has more energy. If I had a choice of "boiling water torture" technique that would be used on me, I'd take the "5 drops" option. Still 100 degrees centigrade, but much less heat energy.
What is the difference between evaporation and boiling in terms of the movement of the liquid's particles in each case?
The difference is because the movement while evaporating something is that the particles get colder and move faster while boiling gets hotter and hotter and can go back to being normal water.
Why does boiling water overflow?
Hot oil is hotter than steam. When the water hits the oil, steam is created instantaneously at the oil-water interface. The steam expands violently, creating the apparent explosion.
How much hotter than water's boiling point does the temperature need to be in order to boil human syliva?
Saliva? Not very much, it contains very, very little except water.
What is hotter a glacier or boiling water?
Boiling water.
Which is hotter the boiling water or oil?
Boiling oil because it boils at a higher temperature
Why is steam hotter then boiling water?
because steam is boiling water is hot it turns into a gas therefore you get steam
Why is the latent heat of vapourization of steam is more than that of boiling water?
Because steam is hotter than boiling water.
What happens to the temperature of boiling water if you turn up the heat on the stove?
The boiling point of water is 100 degrees celsius. The water will evaporate at boiling point. By the way what do you mean "what happens to the temperature of boiling water" if you think about it, it does not make sense.
What layer of the earth is five times as hotter than boiling water?
No se?
Is boiling water hotter than boiling syrup?
no.. Syrups are more viscous so require higher temprature to boil
What cause more burns steam or boiling water?
Steam. Liquids turn to solids when they reach a temperature, so steam has to be hotter than boiling water.
Why doesn't water get hotter than 212 Fahrenheit?
Because that's the boiling point.
How much greater is the temperature of lightning than boiling water?
10000 times hotter! That is your answer.
How hot is 735 degrees Kelvin compaired to boiling water?
It's hotter than boiling water. The boiling point of water is 374.15 Kelvin. So with this temperature you could melt Zinc, Selenium, Potassium, Phosphorus and Cadmium.
Is boiling water in a kettle is conduction?
Black car gets hotter than the silver car?
