To Whom It May Concern:

Please be so kind as to answer a question for my students?  We understand that 
water is a solid at 0 degrees Celsius, a liquid at 20 degrees Celsius, and 
boils at 100 degrees Celsius.  But is water vapor 100 degrees Celsius?  Is it 
hotter than 100 degrees Celsius; can it become hotter than that?  How hot can 
water vapor get?

Thank you so much for your kind attention to my request.
