Question

Two common materials we encounter in our daily lives are radiator coolant in automobiles and dry ice. The coolant in an automobile radiator, a solution of antifreeze (a glycol such as ethylene or propylene glycol) and water, freezes at 39°C and boils at 110°C. The temperature of the dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) used in some ice cream vending carts is –78°C. Convert the boiling point of radiator coolant (110°C) to degrees Fahrenheit. Convert the temperature of dry ice (–78°C) to the Kelvin scale.

Answer 1

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Using the formula

°C = (F-32) × 5/9

Where;

°C = temperature in degrees centigrade

F= temperature in Fahrenheit

F= (9/5 ×°C) +32

F= (9/5 × 110) + 32

F= 230°F

To convert -78°C to Kelvin

-78°C + 273 = 195 K
