The boiling temperature of water varies with pressure so 100 deg C or 99.975 is for standards work. You might want to know that for where you live the temperature of boiling is different. In Boulder, down here in the flat land, it varies near 94 to 95 deg C.
Yes, that is true. The boiling point is different for different atmospheric pressures, which are mainly due to different elevations but also due to changing meteorological conditions,.
I thought I had specified in my previous message that I was indeed talking only about standard atmospheric pressure. My apologies if I did not make that clear.
