A Kelvin thermometer and a Fahrenheit thermometer both give the same reading for a certain sample.The corresponding Celsius temperature is:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since the Kelvin and Fahrenheit thermometers give the same reading, the temperature must be equal to -273.15 degrees Celsius (which is the same as 0 Kelvin). To find the Fahrenheit temperature that corresponds to -273.15 Celsius, we can use the formula F = (C * 1.8) + 32, where F is the temperature in Fahrenheit and C is the temperature in Celsius. Plugging in -273.15 for C gives us:

F = (-273.15 * 1.8) + 32 = -459.67

So the only answer choice that corresponds to -273.15 Celsius is C, which gives a Fahrenheit temperature of 301.
