Question

While determining the boiling point of water in the laboratory, the beaker containing hot water accidentally fell on the hand of a student. A fellow student immediately put cold water and then placed the ice cubes on his hand. He then took the student to the dispensary for giving him first aid. (a) The boiling point of water is *

(i) 300 K

(ii) 200 K

(iii) 273 K​

Answer 1

Answer:

the correct answer is 300K

as it is the nearest value to the actual boiling point which is 373 K

Explanation:

you can convert celcius into Kelvin by adding 273 with the temperature in celcius as 0°C = 273 K

ex : 100°C + 273 = 373K

hope you get your answer

Answer 2

Answer:

I) 300K

Explanation:

boiling point of water = 100°C

converting it into K = 100 + 273 = 373K

since 300K is nearest to 373K, hence correct answer is (I)
