Question

Select the temperature scale that matches each boiling point for water. Water boils at 373 . Water boils at 100 . Water boils at 212 .

Answers

  1. Answer:

    I. Kelvin: Water boils at 373 K.

    II. Celsius: Water boils at 100°C

    III. Fahrenheit: Water boils at 212°F.

    Explanation:

    Temperature can be defined as a measure of the degree of coldness or hotness of a physical object. It is measured with a thermometer and its units are Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) and Fahrenheit (°F).

    I. Kelvin: Water boils at 373 K.

    To convert 100° celcius into kelvin;

    Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

    Kelvin = 273 + C

    Substituting into the equation, we have;

    Kelvin = 273 + 100

    Kelvin = 373K

    II. Celsius: Water boils at 100°C

    III. Fahrenheit: Water boils at 212°F.

    Celsius to Fahrenheit = (temperature in Celsius * 1.8) + 32

    Fahrenheit = 100*1.8 + 32

    Fahrenheit = 180 + 32

    Fahrenheit = 212°F
