The Earth's surface does not boil because it is composed of various materials that have different boiling points. Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit), which is a much lower temperature than the melting point of most rocks and minerals that make up the Earth's surface. In addition, the Earth's surface is constantly being heated by the sun, but its high heat capacity means that it takes a long time for the temperature to rise to boiling point.
More than 50 percent.
The Earth has more water than land. Around 70% of the Earths surface is water and 30% is land.
It's roughly a 70.1%/29.9% split in favor of the oceans.
The earth surface is mostly water. We are taught that 75% (3/4) of the earths surface is water.
Yes. Only 3% of the water on Earth's surface is freshwater, while the other 97% is salt water. 71% of the Earth's surface is made up of water.
There is more water on Earth than land (surface area). Water covers nearly 71% of the Earth's surface. While Earth's surface is mostly water, Earth is nearly all rock. Just 0.5% of the planet by weight is water. -Thong Tran

It is more correct to say that water is on the earth. Though the surface of the earth is mostly covererd with water, the operative word is "covered." The water covers most of the earth's surface, so the water could be said to be sitting on the earth. Which it is.
Well, 71% of Earth is covered by water, which is more than half, so, yes, most of Earth's surface is under water.

There is more water on Earth than air. Water covers about 71 of the Earth's surface, while the atmosphere, which contains air, extends only a few hundred kilometers above the surface.
