Question

Answer the following in one statement:
1. State the temperatures of ice point and steam point on a Celsius scale.
2. Write an expression to show the relationship between Celsius and Fahrenheit scales of
temperature.
3. At what temperature, both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are equal?​

Answer 1

1. (i) Ice point is the the mark on Celsius scale at which ice melts. Ice point on the Celsius scale is 0°C. (ii) Steam point on the Celsius scale is the mark at which water changes into steam at normal atmospheric pressure. On Celsius scale it is 100°C.

2 .The conversion formula for a temperature that is expressed on the Celsius (C) scale to its Fahrenheit (F) representation is: F = 9/5C + 32. Celsius temperature scale also called centigrade temperature scale, is the scale based on 0 for the freezing point of water and 100 for the boiling point of water

3.The absolute zero value on the Celsius scale is −273.15∘C. Therefore, the temperature at which both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are the same in −40∘.

Answer 2

Explanation:

1. Ice point is the the mark on Celsius scale at which ice melts. Ice point on the Celsius scale is 0°C. (ii) Steam point on the Celsius scale is the mark at which water changes into steam at normal atmospheric pressure. On Celsius scale it is 100°C.

2. The conversion formula for a temperature that is expressed on the Celsius (C) scale to its Fahrenheit (F) representation is: F = 9/5C + 32. Celsius temperature scale also called centigrade temperature scale, is the scale based on 0 for the freezing point of water and 100 for the boiling point of water.

3. The absolute zero value on the Celsius scale is −273.15∘C. Therefore, the temperature at which both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are the same in −40∘.
