No, water and oil do not have the same boiling point.

Water's boiling point is 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit.

There is no one type of oil, so you would have to specify which. I'll give you a few boiling points:

  • Olive oil:300 degrees Celsius or 570 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Linseed oil: 287 degrees Celsius or 548 degrees Fahrenheit

Keep in mind that as you gain altitude, the temperature at which water and oil boil decreases and that as you go below sea level, the boiling point. These temperatures are based on boiling points at sea level.

You can use this website as a resource if you'd like. It shows some common liquids and gasses and their boiling points at atmospheric pressure (sea level):

What is the boiling point of food coloring?

If the food coloring is water-based, it would be slightly above or below the boiling point of water (100 degrees Celsius) depending on the effect of the coloring substance on the water's boiling properties. Some colorings might be oil based, in which case their boiling point would be closer to 150-200 degrees Celsius.
