The temperature scale in which water freezes at 32 degrees and boils (vaporizes) at 212 degrees is the Fahrenheit scale. It is based on a scale that Daniel Fahrenheit in 1724.
the temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas is called the boiling point.
The freezing point is the temperature range at which it changes from the solid phase to a liquid (also called the melting point). For all metals except Mercury, the freezing point is below room temperature. This means that they are solid at room temperature, except mercury, which is a liquid.
Solids changing to liquids are melting Liquids changing to solids are freezing Solids changing to gas are subliming Liquids changing to gas are boiling Gases changing to liquids are condensing.
The answer is "Freezing point depression" on Apex
It depends on what the material is. H2O changes from solid to liquid at approximately zero degrees C. That is not the case for any other solid. For example, lead turns into a liquid at about 327.5 degrees C.
The ice point and steam point that you refer to are called the boiling and freezing point. Each substance has a different boiling and freezing point, though for water it is 0 degrees Celsius is freezing and 100 degrees Celsius is boiling. Or if you use Fahrenheit, it is 32 degrees Fahrenheit for freezing and 212 degrees Fahrenheit for boiling. So depending on what system of measurement you use for temperature, the number of degrees separating the boiling and freezing points of water can be 100 degrees for Celsius or 180 degrees for Fahrenheit.
It all depends-if it changes to solid it is called Freezing point and that of water is 0 degrees and if it changes to gas it is called Boiling Point.
The degree of hotness or coldness is measured on a scale called the Celsius or Fahrenheit scale. This scale quantifies temperature using degrees, with 0 degrees representing the freezing point of water and 100 degrees representing the boiling point of water on the Celsius scale. On the Fahrenheit scale, the freezing point of water is 32 degrees and the boiling point is 212 degrees.
Temperature has no units. The so-called "degrees" are nothing but slices of large intervals defined by the freezing and boiling points of water, or some such reference.
The temperature at which water turns into steam is called the boiling point, which is 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at sea level.
Condensation
Celsius is a measurement of temperature. Celsius takes the freezing point of water and the boiling point of water, and divides the temperature difference into 100 equal degrees, calling freezing zero, and boiling one hundred. The same sized degrees are used to extend the scale below zero and above one hundred. The SI unit of temperature is the kelvin. the kelvin scale starts at absolute zero, and the units are the same size as degrees celsius, so the freezing point of water is 273.16K. Measurements in kelvin are not called degrees.
"Degrees". On the Celsius scale, each degree is 1/100th of the difference between the freezing point of water, and the boiling point of water. Dr. Fahrenheit was a medical doctor, not a scientist, so he was more concerned with human anatomy. The coldest thing he could fix as a standard temperature was the freezing point of a brine mixture in water. He devised the temperature scale with 100 degrees between the freezing point of his brine mixture and the temperature of the human body. (We now know that he was a little off; the normal temperature of a human body is 98.6 degrees rather than 100.)
Evaporation. The temperature is 100 oC or 212 oF
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.
What is the differences of Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometer? Don's say centigrade, say degrees Celsius. Look for the differences yourself. Here is a nice temperature converter. Scroll down to related links and look at "Conversion of temperatures and formulas".
Each gas condenses at a different temp. as for water vapor it condenses at 212F or 100C
