Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall boiling - point property

The boiling - point of a pure substance (in this case, milk which is a homogeneous mixture for the purpose of boiling - point consideration) is a characteristic property and does not depend on the quantity. The boiling point of milk is approximately 212°F at standard atmospheric pressure. Among the given options, we need to find the closest value to the actual boiling point of milk.

Answer:

212°F is not in the options, but milk boils around 212°F. However, if we assume some minor variations due to impurities etc., the closest value to the typical boiling point of milk among the given options is 212°F is closest to 246°F. So the answer is 246°F.
