374 deg C and 220.6 bar
- A further increase in pressure and temperature leads us to a point at which the latent heat of vaporisation is zero, or there is no boiling. Water directly becomes steam. This is the Critical Pressure and the Critical Temperature. For steam this occurs at 374 deg C and 220.6 bar.

At the critical point water and steam can't be distinguished and there is no point referring to water or steam. The critical point of water is achieved at. Water vapor pressure of 217.75 atm = 220.64 bar = 22.064 MPa = 3200.1 psi. Temperature of 647.096 K = 373.946 °C = 705.103 °F.

Critical Temperature: The temperature which above, a substance can not exist as a liquid, no matter how much pressure is applied. Every substance has a critical temperature. Critical Pressure: The pressure required to liquify a substance vapor at its critical temperature.

The critical pressure of a substance is the pressure corresponding to the critical point (or the critical state) of the substance. The critical point of a substance can be defined as the point on the temperature and pressure scale in which a liquid substance can coexist with its vapour. At temperatures above the critical temperature of a substance,...
The critical pressure of water corresponds to 217.7 atm or 22,060 kiloPascals.The critical pressure of ammonia (chemical formula: NH3) corresponds to 111.3 atm or 11,280 kiloPascals.The critical pressure of chlorine (symbol: Cl) corresponds to 76 atm or 7,700 kiloPascals.The critical pressure of helium (symbol: He) corresponds to 2.24 atm or 227 kiloPascals.In thermodynamics, a critical point (or critical state) is the end point of a phase equilibrium curve. One example is the liquid–vapor critical point, the end point of the pressure–temperature curve that designates conditions under which a liquid and its vapor can coexist.

The temperature T C here is called the critical temperature and the corresponding pressure is the critical pressure (P C). The specific volume at P C and T C is the critical volume. Density of water and vapour at the point C is same.
The combination of critical temperature and critical pressure is called the critical point. The critical temperatures and pressures of several common substances are listed in Table 11.6.1. Note the Pattern. High-boiling-point, nonvolatile liquids have high critical temperatures and vice versa.
