General statement can you make about degrees Fahrenheit and Celsius?

1. The degrees are of different sizes. 2. The lower fixed point of Celsius is the freezing point of water, that of Fahrenheit is lower. Likewise the upper fixed point of Fahrenheit is quite low, but that of Celsius is higher, at the boiling point of water.


Why upper fixed point and lower fixed point are not 100 degree celsius and 0 degree celsius respectively of pure water in kathmandu?

The boiling point of water is dependent upon air pressure, and in Nepal, the high altitiude results in low air pressure.


What is lower fixed point?

What is the temperature taken as lower fixed point in Celsius scale?

The two main fixed points in the Celsius scale are: Zero degrees the freezing point of water and 100 degrees its boiling point. Any temperature below freezing are minus values, the lowest being -273 degrees absolute zero the point where everything stops.


What determines the upper and lower fixed points of a thermometer?

Upper fixed point is the temperature of pure water boiling at normal atmospheric pressure.Lower fixed point is the temperature of a mixture of pure ice and pure water at normal atmospheric pressure. Each thermometer has a scale containing an upper and lower fixed points depending on the use of this thermometer for specific measurements.


What are the upper fixed points of the Celsius and Fahrenheit scale?

there is only one. ABSOLUTE ZERO. the lowest temperature witch can possible excist. further it is the same scale as Celsiuss. but with a sufferance of 273,15 degrees 0 Kelvin= -273,15 degrees Celsius.


Who built a thermometer based not one but two fixed points?

The Celsius scale is based on two fixed points: The freezing point of water at 0 degrees, and the boiling point of water at 100 degrees.


What are the fixed reference points on the celsius thermometer?

If you have 2 then you are right. The freezing point of water and the boiling point of water are the 2 fixed points.

What is the melting point of 1 gram of ice?

the melting point of ice is not dependent on its mass, it has a fixed melting point, hundred degree Celsius. The melting point of water (ice) should be zero degrees Celsius or any thing higher, Yes ice would melt a one hundred degrees Celsius but it would also boil at that temperature.
