The liquid-vapor critical point in a pressuretemperature phase diagram is at the high-temperature extreme of the liquid–gas phase boundary.This is the critical point. In water, the critical point occurs at around 647 K (374 °C; 705 °F) and 22.064 MPa. 
at this point water will gng to convert into water vapour or steam u can call .
