How do you determine which temperature scale is the most accurate?
Thesuppup
There is no such thing as a "most accurate temperature scale". Back when people were still getting a handle on the fact that temperature was something you could measure, some scales were more well-defined than others, but all the temperature scales still in use are defined extremely precisely, so they're all equally "accurate". It doesn't matter whether you call the freezing point of water at standard pressure "32 F" or "0 C" (or, like a sensible person, "273.15 K"), it's still the freezing point of water at standard pressure.
