Don't know that freezing Temperature of Water is 100°C and boiling is up to 0°C.
Learned something differnt ^^

Yes, E:TW is right, water freezes at 100 degrees celsius. This game is the best of the series and its developers are programming geniuses.

IIRC, it created quite a stir within the scientific community when the game was released. Obviously so much of science had to be rethought to line up with this groundbreaking research.

1742 Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius (1701–1744) originally created a "reversed" version of the modern Celsius temperature scale whereby zero represented the boiling point of water and one hundred represented the freezing point of water.

Actually they got it right for how it was originally set up.

You're just sooooooooo negative pika.

Uh... What the heck are you guys talking about (No offense)? I use the Celsius system, and I took Chemistry as my major, water BOILS at 100 degrees Celsius and freezes at 0 degrees Celsius, it turns to liquid from ice form at 25 degrees Celsius. So no, E:TW was wrong. Water does not freeze at 100 degrees Celsius. (This is considering that the pressure is normal atmospheric pressure and no outside factors have done anything to the water)

Omg... learn history.

The guy who invented the celcius stuff made it so that water boils at 0 degrees celcius and freezes at 100 degrees celcius. After his dead this got reversed.

So people ETW IS RIGHT!!!

All praise ETW!

**Rotaugen2009** · May 16, 2009, 02:02 PM

The ETW system is supposed to show the "new" inventions, so it shows how it was when he first came up with it.

**Ragerancher** · May 16, 2009, 02:03 PM

Yes. Ironic that all the people saying ETW don't know what they are talking about are actually the clueless ones. Anders Celcius, who made the scale, originally made it so water boiled at 0 and froze at 100. This was later reversed to what we have today.

Ah disaster!

Please elaborate: Which strange physical condition does water develop between 0°C and 25°C?
