Question

Give the relation between Celsius scale and Kelvin scale of temperature.


Open in App
Solution

Step-1: The relationship between Kelvin scale and Celsius scale of temperature will be:

Temperature on Kelvin scale = Temperature on Celsius scale + 273

Step-2: To convert a temperature on Kelvin scale to Celsius scale, subtract 273 from the Kelvin temperature.

To convert a temperature on the Celsius scale to Kelvin scale, add 273 to the Celsius temperature.

Example: 1.Convert the temperature of 35°C to the Kelvin scale.

Temperature on Celsius scale = 35°C

Temperature on Kelvin scale = Temperature on Celsius scale + 273

Temperature on Kelvin scale = 35 + 273 = 308 K.

2. Convert the temperature 310 K to the Celsius scale.

Temperature on Kelvin scale = 310 K

Temperature on Celsius scale = Temperature on Kelvin scale -273

Temperature on Celsius scale = 310 – 273 = 37°C.
