E Correct answer
Explanation

Boiling point of water = 100 degree Celsius Freezing point of water = 0 degree Celsius Boiling point of water means the temperature at which liquid water starts evaporating to vapour (gas) state. Similarly freezing point is the temperature at which liquid water converts into solid state, i.e. ice. All compounds will have their own melting, boiling and freezing points.
