Question

A scientist is planning an experiment that will include the measurement of temperatures. She wishes to avoid using negative values. The expected temperatures will be significantly colder than
the freezing point of water. Which temperature scale will the scientist most likely use?
O A. Kelvin
OB. Celsius
O C. Fahrenheit
OD. joule

Answer 1

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

Fahrenheit scale is a temperature scale that measures the boiling point of water at 212 degrees F and the freezing point at 32 degrees F. The Fahrenheit scale was developed by the German scientist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724.

In the given scenario, the scientist, who wishes to measure the temperature of her experiment which will expectantly be colder than the point of water, should use the Fahrenheit scale.

So, the correct answer is option C.
