Kathmandu is at a very high elevation in the Himalayas, where the atmospheric pressure is lower than at sea level. This causes water to boil at a temperature less than 100 oCelsius.
100 at standard presure
The SI scale for temperature is Kelvin, which you can get by subtracting 273,15 from the Celsius scale.
"Turning to vapor" is a description of boiling. At normal conditions, water boils at 212oF.
Centigrade degrees or the "Celsius" scale.
How does the altitude at which water is boiled affect the temperature at which it boils?
The temperature scale used where water boils at 100 degrees is the Celsius scale.
The boiling point of water decreases with altitude, so the temperature at which water boils would be lower at a Himalayan peak compared to the seashore. This is because air pressure decreases with increasing altitude, which affects the boiling point of water.
If you mean the temperature of boiling water then Celsius or Centigrade scale
It boils...100 deg Centigrade equals 212 deg. Fahrenheit
The Centigrade or Celsius scale is the temperature scale typically used for scientific work. On the Centigrade scale water freezes at zero degrees and boils at 100 degrees.
The centigrade or Celsius scale in which water freezes at 0 and boils at 100 degrees at sea level.
This is the Celsius scale, commonly used in the metric system for measuring temperature.
Water boils at 373.15 Kelvin.
Celsius and Centigrade
H2O is defined as - a binary compound that occurs at room temperature as a clear colorless odorless tasteless liquid; freezes into ice below 0 degrees centigrade and boils above 100 degrees centigrade; widely used as a solvent - does that sound like water to you .
Water boils at 373.15K.
