- At 100°C, water exists in a gaseous state.
- We know that the boiling point of water is 100°C.
- The water starts to evaporate after attaining this high temperature.
- Example: When you boil water in your home, you observe the vapours coming out of the vessel after some time. These vapours are the gaseous state of water.
