The boiling point is less than 100 degree Celsius
Explanation:
The atmospheric pressure in high altitudes are low when compared to the atmospheric pressure in sea level (10N/
At higher altitude, the pressure exerted at equilibrium is lower when compared to sea level. so the energy needed to boil is less when compared to the sea level.
