**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Boiling Point**: The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from a liquid to a gas (vapor). 2. **Vapor Pressure**: Every liquid has a property called vapor pressure, which is the pressure exerted by the vapor in equilibrium with its liquid at a given temperature. 3. **Atmospheric Pressure**: The boiling point is influenced by the surrounding atmospheric pressure. At sea level, the standard atmospheric pressure is approximately 101.3 kPa (kilopascals). ...
