How do celsius and Fahrenheit express freezing and boiling points of water differently?
Not sure that they are different necessarily, just different scales. The freezing and boiling points of water are the same no matter which scale is used. In degrees, the Celsius scale measures the temp at 0 degrees for freezing and 100 degrees for boiling. Farenheit scales measures the freezing point at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees.

ProfessorCelsius scale sets the freezing point of water at 0 degrees and boiling point at 100 degrees, while Fahrenheit scale sets the freezing point of water at 32 degrees and boiling point at 212 degrees. This creates a difference of 32 degrees between the freezing and boiling points in Fahrenheit, compared to 100 degrees in Celsius.

How do the boiling and freezing points between the Fahrenheit and celsius?
Boiling points and melting points differ for different elements and compounds. However, if water is considered, the freezing point is 0 degree Celsius which is 32 degree Fahrenheit. Boiling point is 100 degree Celsius which is 212 degree Fahrenheit.
How many degrees are there between the melting point of ice and boiling point of water?
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.
A chart of Freezing temperatures and boiling trmpertures for water on both fahrenheit celsius scales?
Sure! Here are the freezing and boiling points of water on both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales: Freezing point of water: 32°F (0°C) Boiling point of water: 212°F (100°C)
Number of degrees between water 's freezing and boiling points in fahrenheits?
The difference between the freezing and boiling point of water on the Fahrenheit scale is equal to (9 / 5) x 100 = 180 degrees. The freezing point of water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit, or zero degrees Celsius, while the boiling point of water is 212 degrees Fahrenheit, or 100 degrees Celsius.
How may degrees between boiling and freezing of water?
There are 180 degrees Fahrenheit between the boiling point (212°F) and freezing point (32°F) of water on the Fahrenheit scale.
