Answer 1

Answer:
`25.6^0C`,
`298.6K`

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 the gas =
`78^0F`

Converting this unit of temperature into
`^0C` by using conversion factor:

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

`^0C=(5)/(9)* (78^oF-32)`

`25.6^0C`

Converting this unit of temperature into
`K` by using conversion factor:

`K=t^0C+273`

`K=25.6+273`

`298.6K`

Thus the temperature on the Celsius and Kelvin scales are
`25.6^0C` and
`298.6K` respectively.
