Water freezes into ice at 0 degrees Celsius. Anything above that it will melt. Therefore ice must be 0 or below

How do you convert the temperature from French to us?

France uses the Celsius scale and the US uses the Fahrenheit scale. Tc = (5/9)*(Tf-32); Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. For example, suppose you have a Fahrenheit temperature of 98.6 degrees and you wanted to convert it into degrees on the Celsius scale. Using the above formula, you would first subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature and get 66.6 as a result. Then you multiply 66.6 by five-ninths and get the converted value of 37 degrees Celsius. Below is the formula to convert a Celsius scale temperature into degrees on the Fahrenheit scale. Tf = (9/5)*Tc+32; Tc = temperature in degrees Celsius, Tf = temperature in degrees Fahrenheit. Assume that you have a Celsius scale temperature of 100 degrees and you wish to convert it into degrees on the Fahrenheit scale. Using the stated formula, you first multiply the Celsius scale temperature reading by nine-fifths and get a result of 180. Then add 32 to 180 and get the final converted result of 212 degrees on the Fahrenheit scale.


29.5 cl covert to body temperature?

I must assume that you are referring to 29.5 degrees Celsius. Normal human body temperatureis 37.0 degrees Celsius. The abbreviation for Celsius is C , such as 37.0 C. The temperature youhave given, 29.5 C , is far below the normal human body temperature.


What is the unit for measuring celsius?

I assume you mean what is celsius the unit for? It is the unit of temperature.


Which temperature scale has 100 degrees between freezing and boiling?

The Celsius temperature scale has 100 degrees between freezing and boiling.


How much does air expand at 35000 degrees?

If you assume pressure stays the same (so volume is not limited in any way), you can use the ideal gas law, pV = nRT. I assume an initial condition of ~20C temperature (293K). Also, I assume the temperature you're giving is in degrees F. 35000F = 19427C. If the above assumptions are correct, air will expand 19427 / 293 = 66.3 times its' initial volume.


What abslute zero is zero?

I will assume you meant to ask, "What is absolute zero?" Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature, at -273 degrees Celsius, or 0 Kelvins.


Is 35 degree fever too low?

I assume you mean Celsius. It is around 95 degrees which means your body temperature may be too low so it wouldn't be considered a fever


What is 15 decrease celsius in Fahrenheit?

I assume the question is supposed to read "What is 15 degrees Celsius in Fahrenheit?"15°C = 53°F


Is 39.5 degrees for body temperature very bad?

Yes; if Fahrenheit, there is severe hypothermia. If Celsius, there is a dangerously high hyperthermia. The Fahrenheit is much more severe. I assume it is not Kelvin, as that would be unreasonably low.


What is 28c?

Given the categories, I assume 28c refers to 28 degrees Celsius. In that case 28c is: 82.4 degrees Fahrenheit or 301.15 kelvin


What is 34 degrees Celsius?

I assume you wish to convert 34 degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. f=9/5c+32 f=9/5*34+32 f=61.2+32 f=93.2 34 degrees c is 93.2 degrees f


How many joules of energy are needed to heat 25.0 grams of steam from 100.0 degrees Celsius to 29.25 degrees Celsius?

Use this formula. q(in Joules) = Mass * specific heat * change in temperature I will use specific heat of water at 25 C. You can look up specific heat of steam. You say " heat to " so I assume you have final and initial heat backwards. q = 25.0 grams H2O * 4.180 J/gC * (100.0 C - 29.25 C ) q = 7393 Joules
