There are 100 degrees Celsius between the freezing point (0°C) and boiling point (100°C) on the Celsius temperature scale.
There are 100 intervals (degrees) between the freezing and boiling points of water on the Celsius (centigrade) scale. These "degrees" are therefore 1.8 times as large an interval as the "degree" defined on the Fahrenheit scale.
The freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius, and the boiling point is 100 degrees Celsius. Therefore, there are 100 degrees Celsius separating the two points.
There are 100 degrees Celsius between the freezing point (0°C) and the boiling point (100°C) of water.
If the temperature is 1K then it would be -272oC, or -457oF. Each degree of Kelvin is equal to each degree of Celsius, they just have a different stating point. 0 degrees Celsius is the freezing point of water, whilst 0 degrees Kelvin is absolute zero. Which would be approximately -273 degrees Celsius.
The difference is 100 oC.
0 degrees Celsius is freezing, but really water freezes at just BELOW that temperature.
-16 degrees Celsius is 28.8 degrees below freezing (3.2 degrees Fahrenheit).
Oh, that's a wonderful question! You see, water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and it freezes at 0 degrees Celsius. So, if we convert one degree Fahrenheit to Celsius, we find that it is about 17.22 degrees below freezing. Just a little bit of math magic to brighten your day!
The zero point on the Celsius scale is defined by the freezing point of water, which is 0 degrees Celsius. This scale is commonly used in many countries around the world for measuring temperature, with water boiling at 100 degrees Celsius at standard atmospheric pressure.
Freezing = 0 Boiling = 100
The ice point and steam point that you refer to are called the boiling and freezing point. Each substance has a different boiling and freezing point, though for water it is 0 degrees Celsius is freezing and 100 degrees Celsius is boiling. Or if you use Fahrenheit, it is 32 degrees Fahrenheit for freezing and 212 degrees Fahrenheit for boiling. So depending on what system of measurement you use for temperature, the number of degrees separating the boiling and freezing points of water can be 100 degrees for Celsius or 180 degrees for Fahrenheit.
