Question

A thermometer reads a temperature to be 38.0 °C. What is the temperature in
Kelvin? (Kelvin = 'Celsius + 273.15)
K

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed {\tt 311.15 \ K}$

Explanation:

To convert degrees Celsius to Kelvin, use the following formula.

$K= \textdegree C +273.15$

Since we are trying to find 38 degrees Celsius in Kelvin, so we should substitute 38 in for degrees Celsius.

$\textdegree C =38$

$K=38+273.15$

Add 38 and 273.15.

$K=311.15$

38 degrees Celsius is equal to 311.15 Kelvin
