Water stays at a constant temperature when it boils unless it is under pressure. More heat just makes it boils faster. The boiling temperature is around 212F or 100C varying somewhat with the altitude and the purity of the water.
Water doesn't get hot enough. It boils at 212F and unless you can pressurize it, you can't get it any hotter. Oils will boil at well over 350F, so the food cooks quicker. The fat also penetrates the food, and since fat tastes good it gives a good flavor to the dish.
To calculate the amount of BTU required to heat the sea water from 32F to 212F, you can use the specific heat capacity of water (1 BTU/lb°F). The change in temperature is 212F - 32F = 180F. So, the amount of BTU required would be 5 lbs * 180°F * 1 BTU/lb°F = 900 BTU.
Depends on pressure. Look up "triple-point" of water. At sea level, water boils at 100C=373 K=212F; so at 101,325 Pa (that is, the pressure at sea level) water changes phase from liquid to gaseous (and vice versa) at 100C (or 212F, or 373K).(see especially )
Water does boil at 212º Fahrenheit (100º Celsius) at the PRESSURE AT SEA LEVEL! The lower the pressure (higher altitude) the lower the boiling point of water. Or, if the pressure is manipulated, you can boil water at room temperature in a vacuum (lower pressure) using a bell jar and vacuum pump. As most cooks know, if water has a salt (say table salt) dissolved in it, it will slightly lower the boiling point of water at the same pressure/temperature conditions.
When you heat water to 100 degrees Celsius, it boils and turns into steam.
At standard atmospheric pressure, water boils at 100 degrees Celsius or 212 degrees Fahrenheit.

Water boils into steam at 100C or 212F at sea-level pressure.
It is a pressure of 1 bar.
No, water turns into a solid at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, not 100 degrees Fahrenheit. 100 degrees Fahrenheit is the temperature at which water boils and turns into a gas.
Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit (100 degrees Celsius) at sea level. The boiling point can vary slightly depending on altitude and atmospheric pressure.
At sea level water boils at 212f, to reach a higher temperature reading you would have to add pressure.
