The scale of temperature which reads zero as the freezing point of water is?

The scale of temperature that reads zero as the freezing point of water is the Celsius scale.


What is below zero?

Below zero refers to a temperature that is lower than zero degrees on the Celsius or Fahrenheit scale. It indicates a colder temperature where water freezes and is commonly associated with winter weather.


What percent of water in in the ice?

Ice is composed of nearly 100% water in solid form.


What are the units of measurements in temperature?

Temperature is almost always stated in 'degrees', but there are several different systems. The differences are: -- the size of the degrees -- where their zero-point is, i.e. where they begin counting. Here are a few examples: Celsius: Zero point is the freezing temperature of water. Boiling point of water is called '100 degrees'. So the size of the degree is 1/100 of the difference. Fahrenheit: Freezing point of water is called '32 degrees'. Boiling point of water is called '212 degrees'. So the size of the degree is 1/180 of the difference. Kelvin: Zero point is 'absolute zero' ... the temperature where the 'thermal' motion of all molecules completely stops. Size of one "Kelvin" is the same as one Celsius degree. Freezing temperature of water is 273.15 Kelvins. Rankine (hardly ever used): Zero point is 'absolute zero'. Size of the degree is the same as Fahrenheit. Freezing point of water is 459.67 degrees Rankine. Reaumur (never used any more): Freezing point of water is called 'zero degrees'. Boiling point of water is called '80 degrees'. So the size of the degree is 1/80 of the difference.


Would the Celsius scale zero degrees is assigned to the temperature at which water condenses?

No, the Celsius scale sets zero degrees as the freezing point of water and 100 degrees as the boiling point of water, with the scale divided into 100 equal parts between these two points. Water condenses at 100 degrees Celsius.

How are celsius and kelvin different?

Kelvin scale assigns the value 0 K (zero kelvins) to absolute zero instead of to the freezing point of water; note that the degree symbol is not used.

Can Water Substitute Coolant in Emergency if it is freezing cold?

No - water freezes at zero degrees Celsius. The alcohol used in coolants freezes at a much lower temperature.
