Understanding Temperature Scales

Celsius (°C): Metric scale used worldwide. Water freezes at 0°C and boils at 100°C at sea level.

Fahrenheit (°F): Primarily used in the United States. Water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F.

Kelvin (K): Absolute temperature scale used in science. 0 K is absolute zero, the lowest possible temperature.

Temperature Scale Comparisons

Event Celsius Fahrenheit Kelvin
Water Freezing Point 0°C 32°F 273.15 K
Room Temperature 20°C 68°F 293.15 K
Body Temperature 37°C 98.6°F 310.15 K
Water Boiling Point 100°C 212°F 373.15 K

Applications of Temperature Conversion

Cooking: Recipes use different temperature units. Converting between scales ensures proper cooking temperatures.

Science: Laboratory work often requires Kelvin for accurate scientific calculations.

Weather: Understanding temperature in different scales helps during travel to different countries.

Medicine: Healthcare professionals convert temperatures for patient care across regions.

Conversion Formulas

° Celsius to Fahrenheit: (°C × 9/5) + 32 = °F

° Fahrenheit to Celsius: (°F - 32) × 5/9 = °C

° Celsius to Kelvin: °C + 273.15 = K

° Kelvin to Celsius: K - 273.15 = °C
