a)
The triple point of water is unique
The melting point of ice and boiling point of water change with the change in pressure and it is also change if some impurities are dissolved in water.
Thus, melting point of ice and boiling point of water are not fixed.
b)
Different book says that there are basically two fixed points on the Kelvin scale as one fixed point is
c)
The temperature
Thus, the absolute temperature
d)
The triple point of water is
The Fahrenheit scale is related to Kelvin scale is given as,
Where, the temperature on Fahrenheit scale is
For another set of the readings the Fahrenheit scale is related to Kelvin scale is given as,
Where, the temperature on Fahrenheit scale is
By subtracting equation (1) and (2), we get
By substituting the given value in the above relation, we get
Now, the temperature of the triple point on the new scale is given as
Thus, the temperature of the triple point on the new scale is
