Water does not get hotter than 100 degrees because of a heating curve. During a phase change (in this case vaporization) the temperature remains the same. Once the phase change is complete the temperature will continue to rise but the water will have been completely evaporated. So no, water can not be heated to more than 100 degrees Celsius.

Is a firewall required around an electric water heater?

No, but what is recommended around a hot water tank is insulation. The warmer that you can keep the tank the more money you will save on water heating costs. For a very reasonable cost you can purchase these HWT blankets to cover the tank with. Over a year the money saved on heating water will payback the cost of the blanket.


Is smoke hotter than fire?

A fire burn consumes your skin as fuel and would keep going until the fuel is gone or it is deprived of oxygen. A steam burn is just water or a liquid that has a lot of thermal energy that it wants to transfer to something that is colder (like your skin). A fire burn would persist, while a steam burn would just get it's thermal energy sapped out and condense into a liquid.

Does a paper cup keep water hotter than a plastic cup?

A paper cup typically does not keep water hotter than a plastic cup. Paper is a poor insulator compared to plastic, so heat is more likely to escape from a paper cup, leading to faster cooling of the water inside.
