At sea level pressure, on the Fahrenheit scale, water boils at 212 °F.
On the Celsius scale, water boils at 100 °C (the "degrees", or intervals, are larger in Celsius than in Fahrenheit).
At higher altitudes (lower air pressure), water boils at a lower temperature.
Near the top of Mount Everest, the boiling temperature is only about 160°F or 72°C.

How do the boiling and freezing points between the Fahrenheit and celsius?
Boiling points and melting points differ for different elements and compounds. However, if water is considered, the freezing point is 0 degree Celsius which is 32 degree Fahrenheit. Boiling point is 100 degree Celsius which is 212 degree Fahrenheit.
A chart of Freezing temperatures and boiling trmpertures for water on both fahrenheit celsius scales?
Sure! Here are the freezing and boiling points of water on both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales: Freezing point of water: 32°F (0°C) Boiling point of water: 212°F (100°C)
Which is larger one degree celsius or one degree Fahrenheit?
One degree Celsius is larger than one degree Fahrenheit. This is because the Celsius scale is based on the freezing and boiling points of water (0°C and 100°C) while the Fahrenheit scale is based on historical values that do not have a direct correlation to a physical constant like water's freezing and boiling points.
What is the boiling point of water on the Fahrenheit and Celsius scales?
The boiling point of water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit and 100 degrees Celsius.
What physical standards are Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales linked to?
Fahrenheit scale is linked to the freezing and boiling points of water, defining 32°F as the freezing point and 212°F as the boiling point at sea level. Celsius scale is linked to the freezing and boiling points of water, defining 0°C as the freezing point and 100°C as the boiling point at sea level.
What are the boiling points of water on the f and c scale?
212 degrees Fahrenheit and 100 degrees Celsius (at sea level).
What is th difference between celsius and fahrenheit?
The difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit is that in Celsius, the freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius and the boiling point is 100 degrees Celsius. In Fahrenheit, the freezing point of water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit and the boiling point of water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is the boiling point and freezing point of fahrenheit?
Fahrenheit is a person or a temperature scale, while boiling and freezing points are physical properties of chemicals. You need to be specific in asking which chemical's boiling and freezing points. Water has a freezing point of 32 degrees F, and a boiling point of 212 degrees F.
How do celsius and Fahrenheit express freezing and boiling points of water differently?
Not sure that they are different necessarily, just different scales. The freezing and boiling points of water are the same no matter which scale is used. In degrees, the Celsius scale measures the temp at 0 degrees for freezing and 100 degrees for boiling. Farenheit scales measures the freezing point at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees.
What is the Fahrenheit temp of boiling water?
Celsius and Fahrenheit are units of measure, they are not compounds and do not have a boiling point. Or you could mean the actual people, Anders Celsius and Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit , in which case the answer would be just over 100 for Celsius and just over 212 for Fahrenheit since they are mostly water.
Which has the higher temperature - boiling water or ice?
Boiling water has a higher temperature than ice. Boiling water is heated to 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit), while ice is typically at 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit).
What is boiling water temperature?
The boiling point for water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit, or 100 degrees Celsius, or 373 kelvin
