Lord Kelvin, also known as William Thomson, expressed skepticism about radium being an element in the early 1900s, particularly around 1903. He questioned the idea of radium as a distinct element due to its radioactive properties and the way it transformed into other elements. Kelvin's views were rooted in the understanding of atomic theory at the time, which was still evolving with discoveries in radioactivity.

Degrees in Kelvin scale = Degrees in Celsius scale + 273,15.
Anders Celsius introduced the Celsius scale in 1742, based on a scale where 0 represented the freezing point of water and 100 the boiling point. Lord Kelvin proposed the Kelvin scale in 1848, setting 0 as absolute zero, the theoretical temperature at which all molecular movement ceases.
Celsius is written with the letter C after the number

Lord Kelvin did not discover any new element. He made significant contributions to the field of thermodynamics, developing the Kelvin scale of temperature and laws of thermodynamics.
