Question

Room temperature is about 20 degrees Celsius. Explain how you could convert this temperature to kelvin. Use evidence from the figure to support your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

293.15 K.

Explanation:

It is given that, the room temperature is 20 degrees Celsius.

We need to convert this temperature into kelvin.

The conversion from degrees Celsius to Kelvin is as follows :

$T_k=T_c+273.15$

We have, $T_c=20^{\circ} C$

So,

$T_k=20+273.15\\\\T_k=293.15\ K$

So, the room temperature is 293.15 kelvin.
