Which burn worse a boiling water or steam and clearly explain why?
Most high school science teachers want you to say that the steam does more damage because they are fixated on the release of energy that accompanies the change of phase from steam to water. Steam is many times less dense than water at standard atmospheric pressure so it carries many times less energy. High school teachers usually fail to state the problem in terms of equal masses. Try this: Which would hurt you worse, holding your hand over a boiling pot of water or sticking your hand into the water? Let's agree that this is an academic question and not a suggestion for you to cook yourself. When we went looking for high pressure (3000+ psi) steam leaks on ships, we would search for them with a broom. When the steam cut the broom handle in two, you would know where the leak was. I can't tell you how to answer the question because I don't know how book-bound your teacher is and I can't know how apt you are with an argument. There is no right or wrong answer to this, it simply depends on your position and how well you write and how open-minded your teacher is.

Why does steam at 100 Celsius cause sevear burn than boiling water?
This is so because when a 100 degree steam comes in contact with our skin it converts into water , energy required to convert in water is taken from our skin in form of latent heat which causes far more severe burns than putting our hand in 100 degrees water :) . dont try this experimentally .
Why can you put your hand into steam without getting burnt but not water?
Actually if you place your hand into steam, you WILL get burnt. What you are probably thinking of is placing your hand into the condensate of the steam that appears like a cloud. You can place your hand into that because it has to cool to a much lower temperature before it begins to condense. True steam is actually a colorless (at least in the wavelengths we can see with our human eyes) gas and is invisible to us.
What do i treat a burn on my hand with?
In order to treat a burn on your hand it is important to know what type of burn it is. A superficial burn (known as a first degree burn) should be placed under cool running water.

A full-thickness burn (known as a third degree burn) is a serious medical condition and 911 should be called.
Does tv teach you anything?
Yes it does. Everything you see or do teaches you something. If you boil water and put your hand in the steam that you see it will burn you. That taught you that steam is hot and that it's not good to touch steam. TV also teaches you things. If you watch garbage shows then you will learn garbage. If you watch science shows then you will learn science. If you watch it all the time then you will learn what lazy means.

steam is more effective because the particles of steam have absorbed extra energy in the form of latent heat of vaporization apparent temp is 100c and actual temp is more than 100c whereas the actual temp of water is 100c
