Question

Water boils at 212 F. Which temperature is an equivalent temperature?

A. 0 k
B. 100 k
C.244 k
D. 373 k
E. 485 k

Answer 1

The answer is D 373k

Answer 2

To convert 212 F, you can first convert to Celsius degrees and then convert to Kelvin temperature.

The conversion of Farenheit degrees to Celsius degrees is:

°C = (°F - 32) / (1.8)

=> 212 °F = (212 - 32) / 1.8 = 180 / 1.8 = 100 °C

To convert °C to Kelvin add 273.15

=> 100°C = 100 + 273.15 = 373.15 K

So, the answer is the option D) 373 K
