## Prompt

What is the boiling point of water at sea level, in both Celsius and Fahrenheit? Cite a source.

## Response

The boiling point of water at standard sea-level pressure is 100°C / 212°F — I'll pull a source to confirm and cite it.

At standard sea-level pressure (1 atmosphere), water boils at **100°C** and **212°F**.

## Boiling Point at Sea Level

- **Celsius:** 100°C at 1 atmosphere of pressure (sea level) [What Is the Boiling Point of Water?](https://www.thoughtco.com/what-is-the-boiling-point-of-water-607865)
- **Fahrenheit:** 212°F, which is equivalent to 100°C [Boiling Point at Sea Level](https://testbook.com/question-answer/what-is-the-boiling-point-of-water-at-sea-leveln--68babded23a0f6de5320b754/amp)

This standard value assumes pure water under standard atmospheric pressure of approximately 101.325 kPa [Boiling Point at Sea Level](https://testbook.com/question-answer/what-is-the-boiling-point-of-water-at-sea-leveln--68babded23a0f6de5320b754/amp). At higher altitudes where pressure is lower, the boiling point drops, and with impurities like salt, it rises.

Would you like to know how the boiling point changes with altitude or pressure?
