Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer 1

For the temperature 321 K, the temperature is 118.13 degree Fahrenheit.

Explanation:

                     degree Fahrenheit = (K - 273.15) * (9/5) + 32

Fahrenheit is a thermodynamic temperature scale, where the freezing point of water is 32 degree Fahrenheit. Based upon the definitions of the Centigrade scale and the experimental evidence, the absolute zero is -273.15 degree Celsius.

                    degree Fahrenheit of 321 K = (321 - 273.15) * (1.8) + 32

                                                                   = 118.13 degree Fahrenheit.
