Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 100°C.

  • At sea level, water reaches its boiling point at 100°C.
  • The air pressure affects the boiling point of water.
  • A liquid's boiling point at high pressure is higher than its boiling point at atmospheric pressure.
