The hottest temperature recorded in the United States is 134 °F in Greenland Ranch, California. The melting point of phosphorus is 44 °C. At this temperature, would phosphorus be a liquid or a solid?

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The state of the phosphorus should be determined at 134 ∘F.

Concept Introduction:

A conversion factor is a numerical ratio which is used to show a measurement in one unit as another unit. It is always equal to 1.

The temperature in degree Fahrenheit can be converted into degree Celsius as follows:

(32 ∘F−32)×59=0 ∘C

Here, ∘F is degree Fahrenheit and ∘C is degree Celsius.

Explanation of Solution

Given Information:

The melting point of phosphorus is 44 ∘C

Calculation:

The temperature in degree Fahrenheit is 134 ∘F . This can be converted into degree Celsius as follows:

(32 ∘F−32)×59=0 ∘C

On rearranging,

32 ∘F=0
