Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the normal boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which its vapor pressure equals the external pressure, which is 1 atm at standard atmospheric pressure.
Recall that the boiling point of water at 1 atm is commonly known as 100 degrees Celsius.
Convert the boiling point from Celsius to Kelvin using the formula: \(T(K) = T(^\circ C) + 273.15\).
Apply the conversion to 100 degrees Celsius: \(T(K) = 100 + 273.15\).
Recognize that the resulting temperature in Kelvin is the normal boiling point of water at 1 atm.
