Answer 1

100c steam will do more damage coz having more latent heat of energy

Answer 2

Steam will produce more severe burns than boiling of water because steam has more heat energy than water due to its latent heat of vaporisation and additionally latent heat of condensation. Steam and boiling water can exist at varing temperature but it is only correct to assume here that both are at same temperature.
