Depending on the altitude the boiling point will differ. This calculator will give you the boiling point of the altitude that you desire to discover:

Yes. The boiling temperature of water depends on atmospheric pressure. It is also affected by contamination and agitation. At higher altitudes, the atmospheric pressure is generally lower. As a result, water boils at lower temperatures with increased elevation. You use this fact when closing the lid on a pot of boiling water. The closed lid increases the pressure inside the pot, which causes the boiling temperature to increase.
Water boils when the saturated vapour pressure equals atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude, therefore, so does the boiling point.
Method 1:
Go to the altitude you want to know the boiling point of water. Bring a pot of water to a boil on a stove. Insert a thermometer into the water and read the temperature.
Method 2:
Go to an online calculator and plug in your values and allow someone else to worry about the formula required.
Method 3:
Use the general rule of thumb: boiling point decreases 1°C every 285 m of elevation
Method 4:
Use the Clausius-Clapeyron equation.
The boiling point of a substance is the temperature where the molecules have enough energy to break the inter molecular bonds and form gas bubbles anywhere throughout the liquid. The higher the atmospheric pressure the more energy is required to form the bubbles and, therefore, the higher temperature is required. The boiling point of water varies depending on the weather ie the current atmospheric pressure.
The boiling point of water decreases as the altitude increases.
It differs depending on the altitude so take a look at this: http://www.csgnetwork.com/h2oboilcalc.html
Because less air pressure
Yes.
Elevation has minimal affects on the freezing point of water as it doesn't deal with gas molecules as boiling does. Elevation affects the boiling point of water because the air pressure changes with elevation.
The boiling point of water decrease when the altitude increase; the value at Johannesburg is near 94 0C.
The boiling point of any liquid is the temperature at which its vapor pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure. So if the atmospheric pressure is lower, it will take a lower temperature to make the vapor pressure equal to that of atmospheric pressure. At hill-stations, the air is generally thinner due to the altitude and the atmospheric pressure is also lower. Here, it requires less than 100oC temperature to reach the point where the vapor pressure of water reaches that of air. So, water boils below 100oC at hill stations.
With the microwaved water, it pretty much depends on the microwave Owens temperature. Though boiling water is 100 degrees Celsius. (I would like to add): The water's temperature depends how long the microwave runs and the power of the microwave. However, if the water is boiling in the microwave, it is the EXACT same temperature as water boiling on the stove. The microwave is just another method of boiling the water.
Zero degrees Celsius. The Celsius temperature scale was defined with zero as the freezing point of water, and 100 as the boiling point of water. (That's for pure fresh water at sea-level atmospheric pressure. Adding impurities to the water will change the freezing and boiling temperatures, and different air pressures will change the boiling temperature of water.)
All you have to do to reduce the boiling point of water is go to a higher altitude and boil it.

Depends on the altitude of the location. In salt lake city, the altitude is about 4330 feet, which makes the water boiling point about 96 degrees Celsius (or 205F).
Boiling is food cooked in liquid that is at or just below the boiling point of water (212ºF, 100ºC, depending on altitude as altitude variables change the temperature required for water to boil). Simmering is food cooked in liquid that is below the boiling point of water, but higher than poaching temperature. To keep a pot simmering, bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to a point where the formation of steam bubbles has all but ceased, usually a water temperature of around 200ºF, 94ºC (this temperature also varies as well).
The boiling point of water changes with altitude. While it boils at 100C at sea level, at the summit of Mount Everest water would boil at a lower temperature of 72C.
The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit. However, water boils at a lower temperature at higher altitude. Salt water boils at a higher temperature than pure water.
it does not change
Water can not boil at its freezing point. Water can only boil at its boiling point. These are two contradictory points in temperature that would cancel each other out.
At a high altitude, water reaches its boiling point at a lower temperature because of a lower air pressure holding it in its liquid form.
