According to Swede Systems Flashover training it expands 4200 times its original volume. So one gallon of water, introduced to a 1200 degree room would expand to 4200 gallons of steam. I have been unable to confirm this as of yet however. Please elaborate if you have additional information. Thank you.

What happens to water at one hundred degrees centigrade?

it boils If you mean "one-hundred degrees Celsius (degrees C)," then that is water's boiling point. What this means is that this is the maximum temperature water can be before it turns to steam. Steam can be much hotter than water because of this, making steam burns more serious than water burns.


Is the temp of steam at 100 degrees celsius same as 100 degrees celsius water?

Leaving aside the effects of pressure, yes, the temperatures are the same. But the amount of heat (thermal energy) per gram, is much greater for the steam.

Is steam hotter than boiling water?

Technically speaking steam has a higher temperature, but boiling water often has more heat energy per volume. Steam starts at 100degrees C, which is the absolute maximum temperature of boiling water, but steam can be much much hotter, all the way up to thousands of degrees. However, steam as a gas is much less dense than water, and so steam at 100C will injure a person much less than water at 100C.
