What makes water in to solid and solid into liquid?

well it depends on the temperature because as u know water is originally a liquid but when the temperature hits 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 degrees Celsius. And the solid becomes a liquid when its above the freezing point with is 31 degrees Fahrenheit or more above.


What is the the significance of 1 degree celsius?

Temperature is easy to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius yourself. You can use the formula Tc = (5/9)*(Tf-32) where Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. 0 F is -18 C.
