what degree is considered freezing
For temperature intervals rather than specific temperatures, 1 Â°F = 1 Â°R = 5â9 Â°C = 5â9 K. On the Fahrenheit scale, the freezing point of water is 32 degrees Fahrenheit (Â°F) and the boiling point is 212 Â°F (at standard atmospheric pressure). This puts the boiling and freezing points of water exactly 180 degrees apart.
