Water does not boil at STP. STP stands for standard temperature and pressure. You've got to either increase the temperature or decrease the pressure.
Most likely you want to know what the boiling point of water is at standard pressure. This is complicated somewhat by the fact that STP is not as simple as it used to be and is now defined by IUPAC as 100 kPa but by NIST as 1 ATM (101.325 kPa). Using NIST standard pressure, the boiling point of water is 373.15 K; using IUPAC's value, it's 372.78 K (approximately... I couldn't find exactly 100 kPa in my vapor pressure tables, so I had to interpolate a little; that last digit may be off slightly).
Somewhat less likely is that you want to know what pressure is required to make water boil at standard temperature. Again, two competing standards; IUPAC's is 273.15 K and NIST's is 293.15 K. IUPAC's value leads to a pressure of 4.579 Torr, which is 0.610 kPa; NIST's value yields a pressure of 17.535 Torr or 2.34 kPa.
All values are straight from vapor pressure tables in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (60th Ed.) modulo a units conversion, except for the one for IUPAC standard pressure which I had to interpolate as noted above.

∙ 13y ago1) Hydrogen GAS does not boil, simply because a gas is beyond the boiling stage.
2) STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure) is a set variable. Therefore, this question is syntactically incorrect, because you are asking: What is the boiling point of 'substance' at X°C and X psi, in which case you can't answer because of the already given temperature.

Does dihydrogen monoxide have a high boiling point?
Dihydrogen Monoxide (H2O) is water. It boils at 100C or 212F at STP.
What are the boiling point and the freezing points of water in Fahrenheit and Celsius?
At STP ie (1 Atm or 101.325 kPa, 760mm Hg) The boiling point of pure water is 212 °F or 100 °C The freezing point of pure water is 32 °F or 0 °C
What is water's boiling point in low atmosphere pressure?
Boiling point is consistant with the given air pressure. At 760 mmHg air pressure (STP) then the boiling point of water is 100 oC. Water boils at 99.97 °C (211.95 °F) under standard pressure at sea level, but at 93.4 °C (200.1 °F) at 1,905 metres (6,250 ft).
What does the boiling of salt water compare to the boiling point of fresh water?
The boiling point of freshwater is lower than the boiling point of saltwater.
What Is The value of the boiling point of water on the Kelvin scale is the value of the boiling point of water on the Celsius scale?
Pure water at STP boils at 100 degrees Celsius, which is 373.15 Kelvin.
What is a boiling point on Fahrenheit scale?
Pure water at STP boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
Does dihydrogen monoxide have a high boiling point?
Dihydrogen Monoxide (H2O) is water. It boils at 100C or 212F at STP.

Why is octane a liquid at SATP?
Petroleum is a MIXTURE of organic compounds, all of which are above their melting point at STP and some of which are near their boiling point at STP. This means that at STP petroleum is a volatile liquid.
At standard pressure a certain compound has a low boiling point and is insoluble in water At STP this compound most likely exists as?
Nonpolar molecules
How are water and the metric system related?
the unit of mass is the mass of one cubic centimeters of water at STP. - gram the unit of temperature (degrees Kelvin or Kelvins) is related to the difference between the freezing point ofd pure water and the boiling point at STP. - Celsius, reduced to absolute zero for Kelvin.
Does the larger the quantity of water result in a higher temperature at which the water will boil?
Technically speaking, boiling is when the pressure inside the system is equal to that of the surroundings. That means that you can boil water at room temperature if you have a vacuum pump. If you mean just to the heat that it starts to boil at STP, then no, it doesn't. Boiling point at STP is and always will be 100 degrees Celsius.
What it the scientific definition normal boiling point?
The Boiling Point is the point at which a substance at liquid state boils. The temperature that the liquid has to reach to be at Boiling Point (B.P) ranges, it is different for each liquid. The B.P for water is 100 degrees Celsius.
What is the boiling point in degrees centigrade for silicon?
At STP Silicon boils at 3,265 °C.
