It would depend on the situation. Some organisms live at very high temperatures and this would not make any difference. In humans, it would cause the enzyme to denature. It would cook them.

Can gold be destroyed by heating?

Gold has a high melting point of 1,064 degrees Celsius, so heating it to this temperature can melt it but not destroy it. However, if gold is heated to very high temperatures above its vaporization point of 2,856 degrees Celsius, it can be vaporized and dispersed.


Which is hotter 92 degrees Fahrenheit or 92 degrees celsius?

92 degrees Celsius is hotter than 92 degrees Fahrenheit. This is because the Celsius scale has a higher boiling point than the Fahrenheit scale, with 100 degrees Celsius being the boiling point of water compared to 212 degrees Fahrenheit.


What is the temperatures when liquids freeze?

The temperature varies from one liquid to another. Every element has a different freezing point and boiling point. You can calculate both for a molecule by using a formula that takes into consideration the different elements that make up the molecule in comparision to percentage that element is of the total mass of the molecule


What is the state of water at 257 degree celsius temperature?

Water becomes a gas at 100 degrees celsius at sea level. Under normal conditions, it can not get any hotter. When the pressure is increased, however, the temperature at which water boils increases. So gaseous water (steam) at 257 degrees celsius, under pressure, would be considered "superheated steam."


Why does the entropy of water increase as it warms from 0 degrees to 4 degrees?

The increase in entropy of water as it warms from 0 degrees to 4 degrees is due to the water molecules gaining kinetic energy and becoming more disordered. At higher temperatures, the molecules have more freedom of movement and can explore a greater number of microstates, leading to an increase in entropy.

Which is greater 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 32 degrees Celsius?

32 degrees Celsius is greater than 32 degrees Fahrenheit.


Which is greater an increase of 5 degrees Fahrenheit or an increase of 5 degrees celsius?

An increase of 5 degrees Celsius is greater than an increase of 5 degrees Fahrenheit because the Celsius scale is larger than the Fahrenheit scale. In Fahrenheit, an increase of 1 degree is equivalent to 0.5556 degrees in Celsius.


What is greater 150 degree Fahrenheit and 100 degrees Celsius?

100 degrees Celsius.


Which is greater 3 celsius or 30 Fahrenheit?

3 degrees Celsius is warmer than 30 degrees Fahrenheit.


Is the temp of steam at 100 degrees celsius same as 100 degrees celsius water?

Leaving aside the effects of pressure, yes, the temperatures are the same. But the amount of heat (thermal energy) per gram, is much greater for the steam.


Why mammalian enzymes have optimum temperatures of approximately 40oC whereas plant enzymes have optimum temperatures of 25oC?

Human body temp is constantly maintained at 37 degrees so our enzymes have evolved to work best at this 'warm' temperature . We like nearly all other mammals are warm blooded. Plants do not have to keep their temperature constant and generally exist in colder conditions and can tolerate far greater deviations in temperature hence their enzymes tend to work best at lower temperatures.


Is 101 Celsius greater than 122 degrees Fahrenheit?

Yes.


Which has a greater difference in temperature Celsius degree or Fahrenheit degree?

Celsius degrees are larger than Fahrenheit degrees.


How much greater is the temperature of lightning than boiling water?

Lightning bolts can reach temperatures of about 30,000 degrees Celsius, which is much greater than the temperature of boiling water, which is 100 degrees Celsius. This means that lightning is approximately 300 times hotter than boiling water.


Is 4 degrees Celsius higher than -4 degrees Celsius?

Yes, 4 degrees Celsius is higher than -4 degrees Celsius since the positive value is greater than the negative value.
