This is a scale of temperature which takes Absolute Zero as the starting point. The size of the unit is the same as on the Celsius scale. Thus Absolute Zero Celsius is -273, whilst on the Kelvin scale it is zero, and the freezing point of water is +273.
Lord Kelvin was a scientist in Scotland at the end of the 19th century.

∙ 13y agoLord Kelvin(1824-1907) was a Scotsman. He was a physicistwho worked on many important research projects including the laws of thermodynamics, maritime compass and electricity. He also realized that there was a limit to the lower value of temperature. The Kelvin temperature scale is named in his honour. The zero of the Kelvin scale is called absolute zero and coincides with -273.15 ºC. The graduations of the Kelvin scale have the same magnitude as the graduations on the Celsius scale.

∙ 15y agoA Kelvin is the basic unit of temperature in the SI (metric) system. Its symbol is K.
It has the same size as one degree Celsius, but zero on the Kelvin scale is absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature, at which atomic movement would stop.
On the Celsius scale, absolute zero (0 K) is about -273.16 oC.

What does 167 kelvin mean?
Kelvin is a unit of measure for temperature. 167 kelvin equates to -159.07 degrees Fahrenheit.
Why is it incorrect to say the temperature of an object is 25 degrees kelvin?
The units of the kelvin scale are 'Kelvin' not degrees, so the correct way to write it is simply 25k, or 25 Kelvin.
Why kelvIn has no unit?
Kelvin does have units. Kelvin is the unit.
Who discovered kelvin?
kelvin
What was named after lord kelvin?

How do you Convert 245 degree Celsius into Kelvin?
kelvin = celsius + 273 kelvin = 245 +273 kelvin = 518
Which is colder 273 degrees kelvin or 280 degrees kelvin?
273 kelvin is colder than 280 kelvin.
Which is larger a Fahrenheit degree or a Kelvin?
A kelvin is larger. The kelvin "interval" is the same as a centigrade (celsius) degree
