Question

Convert the boiling temperature at gold, 2966 degree centigrate , into degrees fahrenheit and kelvin.

Answer 1

Answer:

Boiling point of gold is 1630 $^{0}\textrm{F}$ or 3239.15 K

Explanation:

We know, $T(^{0}\textrm{F})=1.8T(^{0}\textrm{C})+32$

Here $T(^{0}\textrm{C})$ and $T(^{0}\textrm{F})$ are temperature in degree centigrate and temperature in degree farhenite respectively.

So, $2966^{0}\textrm{C}=\frac{2966-32}{1.8}^{0}\textrm{F}$

                                            = 1630 $^{0}\textrm{F}$

We know, $1^{0}\textrm{C}=273.15 K$

So, 2966 $^{0}\textrm{C}$ = (2966+273.15) K = 3239.15 K
