What is the temperature before you call it steam?

Steam has a minimum temperature of 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius, because those are the temperature at which water boils under normal pressure. Once steam goes below those temperatures it turns back into water. Steam can be heated above those temperatures under certain conditions and is then called superheated steam.


Is temperature and heat the same thing or are they different?

they are different. temperature is the movement of particles. heat is the movement of temperature from place to place. temperature are the moving particles, heat is the movement of those particles from a place to a place.


How hot does the steam get on a steam engine?

The temperature of the steam in a steam engine will vary as the pressure of the steam. The higher the pressure, the higher the temperature that the steam headers (pipes) will run at. Because pressure varies between steam engines, temperature will vary also. Those temperatures could be from between 300 to 400 degrees on up to 700 to 800 degrees Fahrenheit, depending on the actual pressure the boiler is running at.Toy - Model steam engines typically use much lower steam pressures, and these machines run at 220F to about 250F


Compare particle movement in a solid liquid and gas?

The motion of particles in a solid are much slower than those in the gas. Gaseous particles are very energetic and highly kinetic.


How do particles behave at its boiling point?

An extreme example of Brownian Motion. Energetic molecules would be repelling each other in agitation and colliding. Those that accumulate enough energy would escape as gas and vapor (steam). The energy of the particles is that they bounce off of each other making more and more energy


Why do we blown down in boiler?

The water is blown out of the boiler with some force by steam pressure within anticipating those particles will settle to the bottom of the boiler.


What is the difference between water vapor and oxygen?

The word vapour is used to describe those gases that usually exist as liquid at room temperature . Water particles in gaseous state are called vapours . Oxygen at room temperature exists as gas particles .


Which particles have more kinetic energy-those in a substance with a high temperature or those in a substance with a low temperature?

The quality of an answer depends in part on the quality of the question. I am guessing that we are comparing for total thermal energy at fixed given temperature, a given number of particles with a larger number of particles. It makes a difference whether the actual particle makeup stays the same. In other words, we are comparing say some number of particles of Teflon with a greater number of particles of Teflon, and NOT some number of particles of Teflon with a greater number of particles of say iron, or salt; or size A particles compared to size B particles. In that case, yes, the more particles of the same kind, the more energy. Thermal energy is proportional to the mass times the absolute temperature times the specific heat, and specific heat depends on the molecular type and arrangement.


Are particles in liquid more spread out than those in a gas?

Take a litre of water and a litre of steam. They are both H20. The heavier one must contain more molecules, and its molecules must be more "closely packed". So, does the liquid or the cas have "particles more spread out"?


How do particles in solutions differ from those in suspension?

The dispersed particles of a suspension are larger than the particles of a colloid.


Why the planetesimals beyond the frost line were initially able to grow larger than those inside the frost line?

Temperature was low enough for metals, and particles to form.
