Celsius unit in Temperature

Celsius is a temperature scale widely used across the globe, particularly in scientific research, education, and most daily temperature measurements. Named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius, the scale is based on the phase changes of water under standard atmospheric conditions, with 0 degrees representing the freezing point of water and 100 degrees marking the boiling point. The Celsius scale is part of the International System of Units (SI) and is preferred in most countries, offering a straightforward metric system integration, especially for scientific purposes.

Réaumur unit in Temperature

The Réaumur scale, established by French scientist René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur in 1730, sets the freezing point of water at 0 degrees and the boiling point at 80 degrees. This scale was historically important in parts of Europe, particularly in France and Germany, where it was used for various scientific and industrial purposes, such as in the production of cheese and alcohol. Although it has largely been replaced by the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales, the Réaumur scale remains a point of historical interest, especially in studies of early scientific instrumentation and temperature measurement techniques.
