The temperature of boiling helium is 73.14 K lower than the temperature of boiling nitrogen. Selected basis: approximate values.
Celsius and Fahrenheit zero points are offsets. Compare temperature differences, not ratios in °C or °F. The kelvin axis starts at absolute zero.
4.22 K - Temperature; approximate.
Boiling helium is helium in its liquid state at its normal boiling point under standard atmospheric pressure.
Approximate normal boiling point of helium at one atmosphere.
