Burns are graded in degrees, such as first, second, or third (a few people use fourth, but it is not commonly used).

For instance, a fire can cause anywhere from a first to third degree burn, and it is very hot, while a chemical such as lye can also cause a first to third degree burn, but it is room temperature.
