Atmospheric pressure influences the boiling point of water. When atmospheric pressure increases, the boiling point becomes higher, and when atmospheric pressure decreases (as it does when elevation increases), the boiling point becomes lower.

Water will boil at a temperature higher than 100 C if the pressure is higher than the atmospheric pressure at sea level

water only boils at 100°C and 1atm(760mmhg)
but the question
