Question

If the absolute temperature of a gas is 600 K, the temperature in degrees Celsius is: A. 705°C. B. 873°C. C. 273°C. D. 327°C

Answer 1

Answer:

D). $327 ^0 C$

Explanation:

As we know that temperature scale is linear so we will have

$\frac{^0C - 0}{100 - 0} = \frac{K - 273}{373 - 273}$

now we have

$\frac{^0 C - 0}{100} = \frac{K - 273}{100}$

so the relation between two scales is given as

$^0 C = K - 273$

now we know that in kelvin scale the absolute temperature is 600 K

so now we have

$T = 600 - 273 = 327 ^0 C$

so correct answer is

D). $327 ^0 C$
