The "scale" of each is infinitely big -- in other words, both have no maximum possible temperature. However, one degree Celsius (°C) is larger than one degree Fahrenheit (°F).

What came first Fahrenheit or celsius temperature scale?
Fahrenheit was proposed in 1724; Celsius was proposed in 1744.
What temperature is absolute zero in Celsius and Fahrenheit?
Absolute zero is defined as 0K on the Kelvin scale and as -273.15° on the Celsius scale. This equates to -459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale.
What do you call the scale that water boils at 100 and freezes at 0?
Celsius A "degree" in Celsius is 1.8 times as large an interval as a "degree" in Fahrenheit. So changes in temperature will be 1.8 times as large on the Fahrenheit scale than on the Celsius scale. Answered by: desiree
Why do scientists measure temperature in K or Celsius instead of Fahrenheit?
The Kelvin scale is an absolute scale. This means that at 10 K there is twice as much thermodynamic activity as there is at 5 K. This property does not apply to either the Celsius or Fahrenheit scale - where the zero is arbitrary. A difference of 1 Kelvin is the same as a difference of 1 Celsius degree which is why, as an alternative scale, Celsius is preferred to Fahrenheit.
Which temperature scale is not directly or indirectly based on a phase changes in water?
Fahrenheit Scale is the temperature scale that is not directly or indirectly based on the phase changes in water. Another similar temperature scale is Celsius Scale.
Does 1.0 Fahrenheit or 1.0 Celsius correspond to larger temperature change?
A degree in the Celsius scale is larger than one in the Fahrenheit scale.
Which has the larger value C or F?
A temperature change by one degree on Celsius scale equals temperature change of 1.8 degree on Fahrenheit scale or F (Fahrenheit) = 1.8 C (Celsius) + 32
What temperature will the reading on the Fahrenheit scale be double of the reading on the Celsius scale?
160 Celsius = 320 Fahrenheit
What is the temperature on a Celsius scale of Fahrenheit?
A temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to a temperature of 176.67 degrees Celsius.
What temperature is absolute 0 degrees in Celsius and Fahrenheit?
−273.15° on the Celsius scale which equates to −459.67° on the Fahrenheit scale
What is the temperature on a Celsius scale of 350 Fahrenheit?
A temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit is equal to a temperature of 176.67 degrees Celsius.
What the normal body temperature for both celsius and Fahrenheit?
The normal temperature of the body is: - on Celsius scale: 36,5 0C - on Fahrenheit scale: 97,7 0F
When the temperature in Celsius is doubled from 10 Celsius to 20 Celsius is the temperature doubled on the Fahrenheit scale?
No.
What is the temperature where Fahrenheit and Celsius scale show the same numeric value?
the temperature where Fahrenheit and Celsius scale show the same numeric value is - 40
What are two ways to measure temperature?
The two systems in measuring temperature are:1.) celsius (°c)-Celsius is a scale and unit of measurement for temperature2.)fahrenheit (F)-Fahrenheit is the temperature scale proposed in 1724 by, and named after, the German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit
What temperature is the same on Celsius as well as Fahrenheit scale?
-40 scale
How are Fahrenheit scale Celsius scale alike?
They both measure temperature.
