The Fahrenheit scale.
Only the Kelvin scale. The Celsius scale, for example is based on the thermal properties of water, as is the Reaumur scale. The Fahrenheit scale is based on the freezing point of brine, the freezing point of water and, possibly, the normal body temperature.
For water, zero degrees.
273 k
His temperature scale set the boiling point of water at 60 and the freezing point at 7.5.
It is the Celsius temperature scale
The Fahrenheit scale.
It is the Fahrenheit scale.
the freezing point of water
The freezing point of water (at standard atmospheric pressure) has been assigned the value of 0° on the Celsius, or centigrade, temperature scale.
Celsius scale with freezing point of water = 0 oC boiling point of water = 100 oC

For water, zero degrees.
The Celsius temperature scale is referenced to the water's freezing temperature (0 degrees) and the water's boiling temperature (100 degrees at sea level).
It is constructed with 0 as the freezing temperature of water, and 100 as the boiling temperature.
