Question

explain which will give more severe burns, boiling water 100 degree Celsius or steam at 100 degree Celsius

Answer 1

boiling water will be more fastly erupt

Answer 2

steam at 100 degrees would cause much more harm due to the presence of latent heat that is needed to turn water from 100 degrees to steam at 100 degrees, although the temperature here remains constant, the change in physical states require a lot of latent energy which also causes much severe burns
