What degree Fahrenheit is freezing?

32 degrees Fahrenheit 'Freezing Point' is an improper statement (i think), and the term 'Melting point' is more commonly used. Everything has a different Freezing/Melting point, so I assume you mean the Freezing/Melting point of water? This is 0 degrees Celsius, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit, or 273.15 Kelvin.


What is the point of freezing water in centergrade?

Freezing water in Celsius helps to preserve it by keeping it at a low temperature, which slows down bacterial growth and helps maintain its quality. It also allows for long-term storage of water without it spoiling or becoming contaminated.

Is celsius the same as centigrade?

Yes, Celsius and centigrade are the same when referring to temperature scales. Both use the same unit of measurement and have the same interval size, with 0°C being the freezing point of water and 100°C being the boiling point of water at sea level.


Which term is defined as the change in physical state form liquid to gas occurring throughout liquid?

The change in physical state from liquid to gas occurring throughout the liquid is called boiling. It occurs at boiling point of a liquid or when the pressure of the surroundings is reduced as per its boiling point. It boils with the use of vacuum pump and at high altitudes. Boiling Vaporization is the change in state from a liquid to a gas. Evaporation and boiling are the two types of vaporization. You are describing boiling. boiling A+: Condensation

When was the centigrade scale discovered?

Anders Celsius, a Swedish astronomer, devised a temperature scale in 1742 which had 0 as the boiling point of water and 100 as the freezing point of water. Carolus Linnaeus is considered to be the inventor of the centigrade scale in 1744 using 0 as the melting point of ice and 100 as the boiling point of water. The term Celsius was formally adopted for this scale in 1948.
