0 degrees Celsius is freezing, but really water freezes at just BELOW that temperature.
The centigrade scale, now known as the Celsius scale, is based on 100 degrees, with the freezing point of water at 0 degrees and the boiling point of water at 100 degrees at standard atmospheric pressure.
No, they don't. The kind of alcohol that people can drink is called ethanol and it has a freezing point of -114 degrees Celsius (-114 °C). However, there are many other kinds of alcohol and each one has a different freezing point. Water freezes at 0 °C.
260 degrees Celsius = 500 degrees Fahrenheit
1,600 degrees Celsius = 2,912 degrees Fahrenheit.
107 degrees Celsius is 224.60 degrees Fahrenheit.
-16 degrees Celsius is 28.8 degrees below freezing (3.2 degrees Fahrenheit).
Zero Celsius
Freezing water is 0 degrees Celsius, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
32
32-degrees Fahrenheit. 0-Celsius is the freezing point of water, as is 32-degrees Fahrenheit
In Fahrenheit: 35 degrees below freezingIn Celsius, 3 degrees below freezing.(In both cases, we're using "freezing" to meanthe freezing temperature of water.)
There are 100 degrees Celsius between the freezing point (0°C) and boiling point (100°C) on the Celsius temperature scale.
There are 100 degrees Celsius between the freezing point (0°C) and the boiling point (100°C) of water.
The freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius and 273.15 Kelvin, while the boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius and 373.15 Kelvin. This means that the difference between freezing and boiling points is 100 degrees Celsius or 100 kelvins.
There are 100 intervals (degrees) between the freezing and boiling points of water on the Celsius (centigrade) scale. These "degrees" are therefore 1.8 times as large an interval as the "degree" defined on the Fahrenheit scale.
Freezing = 0 Boiling = 100
Oh, that's a wonderful question! You see, water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, and it freezes at 0 degrees Celsius. So, if we convert one degree Fahrenheit to Celsius, we find that it is about 17.22 degrees below freezing. Just a little bit of math magic to brighten your day!
