Process of Converting Celsius to Kelvin
To convert a temperature in Celsius to Kelvin, you can follow these steps:
Given the formula: K = °C + 273
Let's take an example:
Convert 22 °C to Kelvin:
First, add 273 to the Celsius temperature:
K = 22°C + 273 = 295 K
Therefore, 22 °C is equivalent to 295 K.
Remember, the Kelvin scale does not use the term "degrees," so the correct notation is "K" and not "°K".
This conversion is commonly used in scientific and engineering fields where precise temperature measurements are necessary.
