Question

Find the ratio of the boiling point of water and melting point of water in Kelvin scale (up to three decimal places).

• A. $1.233$
• B. $1.366$
• C. $1.433$
• D. $1.566$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$1.366$

The boiling point of water $={100}^{o}C=373K$

The melting point of water $=0^{o}C=273K$

Ratio (in Kelvin) $=\frac{373K}{273K}=1.366$

Hence, option B is correct.
