Boiling Point

Most Common

The boiling point is the temperature when a liquid begins to boil and becomes a gas or vapor. It requires the addition of energy for the matter to move from one state to another.  OR The temperature at which the pressure exerted by molecules leaving a liquid equals the pressure exerted by the molecules in the air above it. A free-for-all of molecules leaving the liquid then ensues.

Centigrade

Celsius, historically known as centigrade, is a scale and unit of measurement for temperature. It is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701–1744), who developed a similar temperature scale. The degree Celsius (°C) can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as a unit to indicate a temperature interval, a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty.
