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 many Fahrenheits are in a degree?

You are mixing apples and oranges. A degree is a unit of measure. How big the unit is depends upon the scale. Fahreheit is a scale of temperature measurement. There are 180 degrees between boiling and freezing temperature of water. Celsius is a scale of temperature measurement. There are 100 degrees between boiling and freezing termperature of water.


How many Celsius degrees are there between the freezing point and the boiling point of water'?

There are 100 degrees Celsius between the freezing point (0°C) and the boiling point (100°C) of water.


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.


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.


What is the halfway point between the boiling point and the freezing point?

Accounting for water: freezing is 32 degrees and boiling is 212 degrees. The midway point would be 122 degrees Fahrenheit.

Why was Celsius invented?

Apparently to have a 100 degree scale between freezing and boiling. Fahrenheit has the freezing point at 32 degrees and boiling at 212 degrees. However, in Celsius, the freezing point is 0 degrees and the boiling point is 100 degrees.
