why does steam is more harmful than boiling water


msdalai: particles in steam that is water vapor at 373K(100°c) have more energy than water at the same temperature. this is because particles in steam have absorbed extra energy in form of latent heat of vaporisation

jvnkhln06gmailcom: Thnx for telling.
msdalai: sry by mistake
jvnkhln06gmailcom: It's ok
jvnkhln06gmailcom: It increases my knowledge

Steam is more harmful than boiling water because steam has more heat energy than water due to it's latent heat of vaporization. It causes more severe burn on skin than boiling water.
