The boiling point of water in Kelvins is 373.15 K. This is equivalent to 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit at standard atmospheric pressure (1 atm).
To understand this better, the Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale starting from absolute zero, which is the theoretical lowest possible temperature. The Kelvin scale is widely used in scientific contexts because it is an absolute scale, meaning it does not have negative values.
When water reaches 373.15 K, it has enough thermal energy to transition from the liquid phase to the gaseous phase, which is what we commonly refer to as boiling. This temperature is crucial in various scientific and industrial processes, including cooking, sterilization, and chemical reactions.
