If you're asking what is the difference between them that makes them having such different boiling points, then you have to have a knowledge of hydrogen bonds present among water molecules which hold them tightly together.

Moreover, a water molecule is polar, and not a nitrogen molecule. Those two effects both contribute (hydrogen bonding more) to the boiling points you can see.
