Steam produces more severe burns than boiling water even though both are at 100oC because steam contains more heat, in the form of latent heat, than boiling water.

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