Answer:
-452.47^oF

Step-by-step explanation:

Temperature of the gas is defined as the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. It is expressed in units like
^0C and
K

These units of temperature are inter convertible.

We are given:

Temperature of helium =
4K

The conversion used for the temperature from Kelvin to Fahrenheit is:


^oC=(5)/(9)* (^oF-32)

As we know that,
K=^oC+273 or,
K-273=^oC


K-273=(5)/(9)* (^oF-32)


K=(5)/(9)* (^oF-32)+273 ...........(1)

Now put the value of temperature of Kelvin in (1), we get:


4K=(5)/(9)* (^oF-32)+273


T=-452.47^oF

Thus the temperature of helium is
-452.47^oF
