The Kelvin Temperature scale is an absolute temperature scale to be used in the SI System.
T in K = T in C + 273.15
Applications involving the Ideal Gas Law or radiation heat transfer require use of absolute
temperature ( T in K )
The kelvin scale was discovered by Lord Kelvin (William Thompson). The size of each degree is the same as those of the Celsius scale but the Kelvin scale starts on absolute zero (273.15 degrees lower than 0oC.
Kelvin starts at absolute 0 and goes up as high as the highest temperature that ever existed in the universe (at least).
In chemistry the standard temperature is 273,15 K (0 oC).

That is the element potassium at STANDARD TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE. Standard temperature is 273 K and standard pressure is 1 atm.
Because this zero point is considered the lowest possible temperature of anything in the universe. Therefore, the Kelvin scale is also known as the "absolute temperature scale". The Kelvin scale is a thermodynamic temperature scale where absolute zero, the theoretical absence of all thermal energy, is zero (0 K). Also: That's just the way some things are, really. You don't ask, "Why only 100 degrees Celsius and not 110?"
Absolute temperature IS MEASURED IN KELVIN.

kelvin
No. Kelvin is an International and therefore the standard unit for measuring temperature.
Yes kelvin is a si base unit. Kelvin is a fundamental unit of SI for thermodynamic temperature.
kelvin(k)
It is named after the British physicist, Lord Kelvin, after his work on thermodynamics. A Kelvin is the basic unit of temperature based on the absolutes scale and is the standard unit for measuring temperature.
At STP(Standard Temperature and pressure), the temperature is zero degrees Celsius(273 Kelvin) and the pressure is 1 atmosphere. At RTP(Room temperature and pressure), the temperature is 25 degrees Celsius(298 Kelvin) and the pressure is 1 atmosphere.
The standard room temperature in Celsius is 21°c and in Fahrenheit is 70°f or 294k
At standard temperature and pressure. (273 Kelvin, 1 atm)
At stp or standard temperature and pressure, we have pressure = 100kPa and temperature=273.15 K
Kelvin. However, since 1 Kelvin = 1 degree Celsius, the latter is also used.
No. The base unit of temperature is kelvin. one degree celsius is the same size as one kelvin. The kelvin scale starts at absolute zero. Zero degrees celsius is the melting point of water at normal pressure, which is 273.15 kelvin.
