Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert to Celcius scale from Kelvin, the formula to use is:

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

a. 450k

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

= 450 - 273

= 177°Celcius

(b) 273 k

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

= 273 - 273

= 0°C

(c) 73 k

Temperature in Celcius = Temperature in Kelvin - 273

= 73 - 273

= -200°C
