Question

"Steam causes more severe burns than boiling water at the same temperature". Give Explanation to this statement.​

Answer:

well you see boiling water can reach a temperature of 100°c after which it would vaporize whereas steam is a gas who can reach more than water since it's the last stage of ice

Answer 2

Answer:

steam causes more severe burn than boiling water at the same temperature because steam contains more heat, in the form of latent heat, than boiling water
