Most people will answer 100oC (212oF) and for the answer will be pretty much correct for most needs. However boiling point temperature depends on atmospheric pressure. The 100/212 answer is only correct for 760 mm pressure. On the tops of mountains or even in Denver and Calgary the actual boiling temperature is slightly lower. Climbers on Everest report that boiling eggs takes much longer decease of the lower boiling point.

∙ 13y agoYou should not use hot water to boil water because if your home has any lead in the Plumbing, the lead can enter the hot water from the pipes more so than through cold water. Additionally, you should allow the cold water to flow for a minute or two because the longer the water has stayed in the pipes the greater chance that it is contaminated by lead. Allowing the water to flow will reduce the chances that there will be lead in the water.

The more salt dissolved into the water the higher the temperature needed to bring it to a boil

Which has the higher temperature - boiling water or ice?
boiling water
What is the temperature of boiling water at sea level?
The temperature of boiling water at sea level is 100 The temperature of boiling water at sea level is 211.149°F.
When will the liquid boil?
When the temperature reaches the correct temperature (boiling point).
What can you notice about the temperature of sea water during boiling?
The boiling point of sea water is higher compared with pure water. Temperature remain constant during boiling.
What is boiling time of water?
the time of boiling of water depends upon the temperature provided to water.
What are freezing and boiling temps for water?
Zero degrees C= Freezing temperature for water and one hundred degrees C= Boiling temperature for water.
What scale has a 373 degrees to indicate the boiling point in water?
Kelvin temperature scale indicates a boiling water temperature of 373º.
Which can transfer more heat a cup of boiling water or a cup of tap water?
A cup of boiling water since it has higher temperature. Note that heat transfer depends more on the temperature.
Why would most likely be the temperature of boiling water?
Which is most likely be the temperature of boiling water? 100oC is the boiling point of pure water - when water is boiling, it stays at a constant temperature until all of it is evaporated.
What is special about the temperature 100?
It is the approximate boiling temperature of water.
What is the temperature of Microwaved and boiled water?
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.
Which took more time heating the water from room temperature to boiling point or boiling all the water away?
boiling it
