What is the boiling point of CCl4?

The boiling point of the compound carbon tetrachloride (also known as tetrachloromethane or CCl4) is 76.72 degrees Celsius. This temperature translates to 170 degrees Fahrenheit.

Carbon tetrachloride exists as a liquid at room temperature and is a somewhat volatile solvent that gives off a slight odor. It is an inorganic compound that is essentially non-flammable. Carbon tetrachloride does pose a health risk to the central nervous system, kidneys and liver if ingested or if its vapors are inhaled. This compound has been used historically as a refrigerant and as a cleaning agent. It is also sometimes used in fire extinguishers. It is classified as a "greenhouse gas" and its vapors can cause damage to the ozone layer.
