The three most common temperature scales are Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin. The illustration below shows identical liquid filled thermometers. Each is calibrated with one of the three temperature scales. The Fahrenheit and Celsius scales show the boiling point for water at 212oF and 100oC.The freezing point for water is 32oF and 0oC. The size of the degrees is different.he Celsius and Kelvin scales have the same size degree, but have different 'zero' or starting points. The freezing point for water is 0oC and 273.15 in the Kelvin scale. Conversions between the Kelvin and Celsius require the addition or subtraction of 273.15.
Difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit. The main difference between the scales of temperature lies on the relative values for freezing and boiling points. In Celsius, water boils at 100Â°C while its freezing point is at 0Â°C. In Fahrenheit scale, water boils at 212Â°F while its freezing point is at 32Â°F.o, to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, multiply the reading by 9/5 and add 32. To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius, subtract 32 from the reading and multiply by 5/9. Summary: â¢ Celsius and Fahrenheit are both scales and unit of measurement of temperature.
