Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given Kelvin temperatures have to be converted into Fahrenheit and Celsius scale.

Concept introduction:

Conversion of temperature units in between degree Celsius, Kelvin and Fahrenheit is given by

Conversion of oFintooC:oC=(oF-32oF)×5oC9oFConversion of oCintooF:oF=(oC×9oF5oC)+32oFConversion of oCintoK:K = °C + 273.15

To convert: The given Kelvin temperature into Fahrenheit and Celsius scales

Answer to Problem 60E

The temperature was converted as -40.15oCand-40.27oF.

Explanation of Solution

The temperature unit conversions is given below

Given data:

233K

Unit conversion formula

Conversion of oCintooF:oF=(oC×9oF5oC)+32oFConversion of KintooC:°C = K- 273.15

Apply the unit conversion to calculate the given temperature in oCunit

°C = K- 273.15=233- 273.15=-40.15°C

Apply the unit conversion to calculate the given temperature in oFunit

oF=(oC×9oF5oC)+32oF=(-40.15oC×9oF5oC)+32oF=-40.27oF

    We are doing an experiment on measuring the temperature. We are to measure the temperature of hot water (measure it initially, then wait for 10 minutes then measure again). Additionally, we are to measure the temperature of another water before and after putting ice (measure initially then measure 3 times [every 5 minutes] for 15 minutes). My question are: What law or principles of chemistry could be applied in this experiment? Should we expect the temperature of the hot water to drop? why? Should we expect the temperature of the water to rise or drop after putting the ice? why?
