Question

Convert the boiling temperature at gold, 2966 degree centigrate , into degrees fahrenheit and kelvin.

Answer 1

Boiling point of gold is 1630
`^(0)\textrm{F}` or 3239.15 K

Step-by-step explanation:

We know,
`T(^(0)\textrm{F})=1.8T(^(0)\textrm{C})+32`

Here
`T(^(0)\textrm{C})` and
`T(^(0)\textrm{F})` are temperature in degree centigrate and temperature in degree farhenite respectively.

So,
`2966^(0)\textrm{C}=(2966-32)/(1.8)^(0)\textrm{F}`

= 1630
`^(0)\textrm{F}`

We know,
`1^(0)\textrm{C}=273.15 K`

So, 2966
`^(0)\textrm{C}` = (2966+273.15) K = 3239.15 K
