Interpreting Temperatures
The freezing point of water is 0°C. The freezing point of water is when it
turns to ice. The boiling point of water is 100°C. If the temperature of water is
near 0°C, the water is cold. On the other hand, if the temperature of water is
near to 100°C, then it is hot. Take note that this is only true in the case of
water or liquids that contain water such as orange juice and coffee.

What if you are measuring the temperature of other objects?
Let's Try This
Get a newspaper. Look at the weather section of the newspaper. The
weather section of the newspaper describes the kind of weather to be
expected for the day.
What is the temperature given?
What does this mean?
The weather temperature will tell you whether it's going to be a hot or
cold day.

At temperatures below 32°F (0°C), liquid water freezes; 32°F (0°C) is the freezing point of water. At temperatures above 32°F (0°C), pure water ice melts and changes state from a solid to a liquid (water); 32°F (0°C) is the melting point.)
