Before answering this question it is necessary to know the conversion factors for temperatures.

273 k = 0 ° C

To transform a temperature from Kelvin to ° C we use the following Formula

T ° C = T Kelvin - 273

For 373 K

373K -273 = 100 ° C

373 Kelvin equals 100° C.

To transform a temperature from ° C to ° F we use the following formula:

(T° C x 9/5) + 32 = T ° F

Then:

For 0 ° C

(0° C x 9/5) +32 = 32 ° F

0° C equals 32 ° F.

For 100° C

(100 ° C x 9/5) +32 = 212 F

100 ° C equals 212 ° F.

Therefore, the correct option is the first:

373 Kelvin = 100 ° C = 212 ° F
