description
Temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the environmental pressure surrounding the liquid, or in other terms the temperature of transition from the liquid phase to the gazeous phase for a chemical compound. At the standard atmospheric pressure the boiling point of water is 100 °C.
