What is an example of a scalding liquid?

An example of a scalding liquid is boiling water, which typically reaches temperatures of 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at sea level. Other examples include hot oils used in cooking or steam, which can also cause severe burns. Exposure to such liquids can result in serious injuries, making it important to handle them with care.


Why are mercury and venus scalding hot?

Mercury and Venus are scalding hot primarily due to their proximity to the Sun and their atmospheric conditions. Mercury, lacking a significant atmosphere, experiences extreme temperature fluctuations, with daytime temperatures soaring due to direct sunlight. Venus, on the other hand, has a thick atmosphere rich in carbon dioxide, which creates an intense greenhouse effect, trapping heat and raising surface temperatures to extreme levels, making it the hottest planet in the solar system.


What is the heating point of water?

The scalding point of hot water is 140 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature the skin of a newborn baby would experience a mild burn with just momentary exposure. Scalding is somewhat dependant on exposure time and skin thickness, but in most cases, skin damage would eventually occur with sufficient exposure to water at 140 degrees F.


What is the maximum temperature that is allow in a sink?
