Solution

Celsius and Kelvin are the two different scale which is used to measure temperature, both follow the same unit difference between each scale but with a different starting point.

Relationship between Celsius and Kelvin -

  • One unit increase in the kelvin scale is the same as a one-degree increase on the Celsius scale.
  • The only difference is the zero point of the thermometer.

Temperature on Celsius scale = temperature on kelvin scale − 273

= 357 − 273

= 84°C

357 k = 84°C
