Question

water As Ice has a cooling effect whereas water as steam may cause severe burns explain​

Answer 1

When temperature is decreased to 0oC, water turns into ice. Whereas, when temperature is increased to 100oC, water is converted to steam. Water as steam has more latent heat than water in liquid and solid form. Hence, water as steam can cause severe burns while water as ice has a cooling effect.

please mark it brainliest

Answer 2

When ice melts , it absorbs the energy equal to the latent heat of fusion from the surrounding, therefore causes cooling effect. But stream releases the extra heat (equal to the latent heat of vaporisation ) which it has absorbed when water was converted into steam. So, steam produces severe burn.
