boiling point of water 
Clausius–Clapeyron equation
Tb = 1 / ((1/T₀) - (R ln(P/P₀) / ΔH))
T₀ is known boiling point, at P₀
P is new pressure
Tb is new boiling point temperature in K
R is ideal gas constant 8.314 J/Kmol
P is the vapor pressure of the liquid at pressure P
ΔH is the heat of vaporization of the water 40.65 kJ/mol
The boiling point is raised by 0.5 degrees Celsius for
water with 29.2 grams of NaCl dissolved in each kg of water.
Relationship between Liters, m³, cm³, kg for water
1 liter = 0.001 m³ = 0.998 kg at 20C
 = 1 liter = 1000 mL = 1000 cm³
100 m³ = 100000 L = 99800 kg
10 m³ = 10000 L = 9980 kg
1 m³ = 1000 L = 998 kg
0.1 m³ = 100 L = 99.8 kg
0.01 m³ = 10 L = 9.98 kg = 9980 g
0.001 m³ = 1 L = 1000 mL = 0.998 kg = 998 g
0.0001 m³ = 0.1 L = 100 mL = 0.0998 kg = 99.8 g
0.00001 m³ = 0.01 L = 10 mL = 0.00998 kg = 9.98 g
0.000001 m³ = 0.001 L = 1 mL = 0.000998 kg = 0.998 g
  Seawater
Seawater at salinity 35 g/kg, which is typical
   of the ocean
density of seawater = 1.025 g/cm³ = 1025 kg/m³
     = 8.55 lb/gal = 63.8 lb/ft³
Specific Heat at 20ºC 3993 J/KgK
Freezing point −1.910 °C
Boiling point 100.56 °C
thermal conductivity of seawater is 0.6 W/mK
speed of sound in seawater is about 1560 m/s
Added NaCl: For saltwater, the boiling point is raised,
and the melting point is lowered.  The melting point is
lowered by 1.85 degrees Celsius if 29.2 grams of salt are dissolved in
each Kg of water (called a "0.5 molal solution" of salt. The Na and Cl
dissociate right away when dissolved, and so for a 0.5 molal solution
of salt, there is a 1.0 molal concentration of ions). The boiling
point is raised by 0.5 degrees Celsius for water with 29.2 grams of
salt dissolved in each kg of water.
