What is the difference between body temperature and boiling water in degree Celsius?

Body temperature is around 37 degrees Celsius, while boiling water is 100 degrees Celsius. This means that there is a difference of 63 degrees Celsius between body temperature and boiling water.


Are melting and boiling points of a substance the same?

The melting and boiling points of a substance (in this case I am assuming you are referring to a pure substance, and not a mixture), are the same. The triple point is defined by the temperature and pressure at which solid, liquid, and vapor of a substance, can coexist in equilibrium. At any pressure below the triple point, only sublimation and condensation are possible (no liquid phase is possible). Between the triple point pressure and the critical point pressure, there is a difference between the melting and boiling points, of a substance. The melting point temperature will be lower than the boiling point. At the critical point, the densities of the liquid and vapor phases, have merged, and boiling no longer occurs. At and above the critical point, you cease to get liquid and vapor, but you get what is referred to as a "supercritical fluid".


Which temperature scale has 100 degrees between freezing and boiling?

The Celsius temperature scale has 100 degrees between freezing and boiling.


How many degrees between freezing point and boiling point on the celsius temperature scale?

There are 100 degrees Celsius between the freezing point (0°C) and boiling point (100°C) on the Celsius temperature scale.


What is the difference between latent heat and sensible heat in terms of their effects on temperature changes in a substance?

Latent heat is the energy absorbed or released during a phase change, such as melting or boiling, without affecting the temperature of the substance. Sensible heat, on the other hand, is the energy absorbed or released that does cause a change in temperature.

What are the difference between freezing point and boiling point?

The freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a solid, while the boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas. The freezing point is typically lower than the boiling point for a substance.

What are the difference between stewing and boiling?

I think stewing is lower temperature and longer time, and boiling is higher temperature and shorter time.


The metric unit for temperature is?

The Celsius degree ... 0.01 of the difference between the freezing and boiling temperatures of water.


Why does an egg take the same time to cook in water that is just barely boiling as in water boils vigorously?

If water is boiling, it has reached 100C or 212F. The difference between water that is 'barely' boiling and water that is bubbling away like the pits of hades is probably no more than 1C and therefore not a critical difference when boiling an egg.


Would there be a difference in the boiling point temperature of water between a cup of water and a bathtub of water?

No. Boiling point is an intensive physical property, which means it does not matter how large the sample is.


What is the difference between freezing and boiling points on a Fahrenheit scale?

The difference between the freezing and boiling points vary from substance to substance.

Why does boiling water turn to vapor in the cold?

Boiling water turns to vapor in the cold because the temperature difference between the hot water and the cold air causes the water to evaporate and turn into vapor.

What are the basic units in Celsius?

The basic unit is the "degree Celsius". It's 1/100 (0.01) of the temperature difference between the freezing and boiling points of water.
