Question

The boiling point of water is 373 K

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

• The boiling point of water is $100°\mathrm{C}$ which is equal to 373 K.
• The Celcius scale and the Kelvin scale both have the same no of divisions and the conversion formula for kelvin to degree Celcius is as follows-
• $\mathrm{K}=273+°\mathrm{C}$
• By this formula, we can calculate the $100°\mathrm{C}$ in kelvin.
• $$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{K}=273+100 \\ \mathrm{K}=373 \end{gathered}$$
• Hence, the given statement is true.
