Question

State the temperature of ice point and steam point on the Fahrenheit scale.

• A. Ice point = 0⁰F, steam point =212⁰F
• B. Ice point = 0⁰F, steam point =100⁰F
• C. Ice point = 32⁰F, Steam point = 212⁰F
• D. Ice point = 32⁰F, steam point = 100⁰F

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Ice point = 32⁰F, Steam point = 212⁰F

[°F] = [°C] × ⁹⁄₅ + 32
= 0° Χ 9/5 + 32
= 0 + 32
= 32⁰F
[°F] = [°C] × ⁹⁄₅ + 32
= 100°× ⁹⁄₅ + 32
= 212⁰F
