Question

Which one of the following temperatures is equal to 5°C?
A. 465 K
B. 0 K
C. 41 K
D. 278 K

Answer 1

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 278 K

Explanation :

We are given temperature $5^oC$.

Now the conversion factor used for the temperature is,

$K=^oC+273$

where, K is kelvin and $^oC$ is Celsius.

Now put the value of temperature, we get

$K=5^oC+273=278K$

Therefore, the temperature 278 K is equal to the $5^oC$
