When using Charles law the units can either be Kelvin or degree Celsius?
All Charles Law states is that at constant pressure the volume of a gas is proportional to the temperature of the gas.
This can be written as a linear equation:
y = mx + c
where y = volume, x = temperature and m = constant of proportionality.
As such, it doesn't matter what scale is used to measure the volume or the temperature as long as they are both linear so that when the graph of volume against temperature is drawn it is a straight line.
The constant of proportionality will vary depending upon the scale used to measure the volume (and the scale used to measure the temperature).
In scientific use, the Kelvin scale is most likely to be used; but as the Kelvin scale has a direct linear conversion to other temperature scales, any will do.
Using Celsius results in:
V = mK + c
→ Y = m(C + 273.15) +c
→ y = mC + 273.15m + c
→ y = mC + d
(where d = 273.15m + c) which is again a linear equation, with the same constant of proportionality but a different intercept.
Using Fahrenheit results in:
y = mK + c
→ y = m(5/9 × F + 459.67) + c
→ y = (5/9 × m)F + 459.67m + c
→ y = nF + e
(where n = 5/9 × m, e = 459.67m + c) which is again a linear equation, but with a different constant of proportionality and a different intercept.
798 kelvin is equal to Celsius?
The answer is 524.85 C (approx.). The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero and is used in scientific laboratories. Celsius is for general use and set 0 and 100 as melting and boiling point of water respectively. To convert from K to C, subtract 273.15 from K.
Explain why the water froze at a temperature lower than 0 degrees Celsius ?
Pure water, at normal atmospheric pressure freezes at 0 deg C. If the pressure is greater than normal atmospheric pressure (760mm of Hg) or if the water contains dissolved substances, its freezing point will be below 0 deg C.
What is 72 Kelvins in celsius?
The answer is -201.15 C (approx.). The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero and is used in scientific laboratories. Celsius is for general use and set 0 and 100 as melting and boiling point of water respectively. To convert from K to C, subtract 273.15 from K.
How do you convert 77degrees celsiu s into kelvin?
The answer is 350.15 K (approx.). The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero and is used in scientific laboratories. Celsius is for general use and set 0 and 100 as melting and boiling point of water respectively. To convert from C to K, add 273.15 to C.
Add 273 to Celsius to get the corresponding Kelvin temperature.
What is 1156 kelvin in degrees Celsius?
The answer is 882.85 C (approx.). The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero and is used in scientific laboratories. Celsius is for general use and set 0 and 100 as melting and boiling point of water respectively. To convert from K to C, subtract 273.15 from K.
1156 K = 882.85 deg C
What degree Celsius and Fahrenheit meet?
Minus 40. (You can obtain this by solving the conversion formula, F = (9/5)C + 32, and setting F = C, that is, replacing one of the variables by the other.)
What is 0 degrees and 50 degrees north?
Convert the Celsius temperature 55°C to a Kelvin temperature. Be sure to give the unit.
What is 432 degrees Celsius in Fahrenheit?
Start by taking the number in Celsius and multiply it by 9. Then divide that number by 5, and then add 32. This is how you convert Celsius to Fahrenheit or use the equation F = (9/5)C + 32
In this case, the answer is about 809.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is 238 degrees Fahrenheit in Celsius?
Here is a nice temperature converter. Look for yourself. Scroll down to related links and look at "Conversion of temperatures and formulas".
If 80 degree Celsius at 1 hour and 30 degree Celsius to 24 hours how many degree in 4 hours?
is this linear or logarithmic reduction
Convert -138 degrees celsius to kelvin?
The answer is 135.15 K (approx.). The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero and is used in scientific laboratories. Celsius is for general use and set 0 and 100 as melting and boiling point of water respectively. To convert from C to K, add 273.15 to C.
Why degree centigrade and degree Fahrenheit became the same at -40?
9*C = 5*(F - 32)
Suppose the temperatures are the same at X degrees.
Then 9*X = 5*(X - 32) = 5*X - 160
4*X = -160
and so X = -40
9*C = 5*(F - 32)
Suppose the temperatures are the same at X degrees.
Then 9*X = 5*(X - 32) = 5*X - 160
4*X = -160
and so X = -40
9*C = 5*(F - 32)
Suppose the temperatures are the same at X degrees.
Then 9*X = 5*(X - 32) = 5*X - 160
4*X = -160
and so X = -40
9*C = 5*(F - 32)
Suppose the temperatures are the same at X degrees.
Then 9*X = 5*(X - 32) = 5*X - 160
4*X = -160
and so X = -40
