Question 1 of 27070

Kelvin is the absolute temperature scale that corresponds to which of the following?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Absolute temperature scales and what "absolute" means (zero at absolute zero). • Relationship between Celsius and Kelvin and between Fahrenheit and Rankine. • How we convert between temperature scales (offsets and multipliers).

💭 Think About

• Which common temperature scale (Celsius or Fahrenheit) is shifted by a constant amount to form the Kelvin scale, without changing the size of the degree? • Think about what temperature is defined as 0 K and what that corresponds to in Celsius and Fahrenheit. • Rankine is to Fahrenheit as Kelvin is to which other scale?

✅ Before You Answer

• Know that Kelvin and Celsius degrees are the same size, only the zero point changes. • Know that Rankine and Fahrenheit degrees are the same size, only the zero point changes. • Before choosing, match each absolute scale (Kelvin, Rankine) with the non-absolute scale that uses the same size degree.
