The label on a pressurized can of spray disinfectant warns against heating the can above 130 degree fahrenheit . What are the corresponding temperatures on the Celsius and kelvin temperature scales?

Respuesta :

Answer : The temperature in degree Celsius and Kelvin is, [tex]54.44^oC\text{ and }327.59K[/tex] respectively.

Explanation :

The conversion used for the temperature from Fahrenheit to degree Celsius is:

[tex]^oC=(^oF-32)\times \frac{5}{9}[/tex]

where,

[tex]^oF[/tex] = temperature in Fahrenheit  

[tex]^oC[/tex] = temperature in centigrade

The conversion used for the temperature from degree Celsius to Kelvin is:

[tex]K=273.15+^oC[/tex]

where,

[tex]K[/tex] = temperature in Kelvin

[tex]^oC[/tex] = temperature in centigrade

As we are given the temperature in Fahrenheit is, 130

Now we have to determine the temperature in degree Celsius.

[tex]^oC=(^oF-32)\times \frac{5}{9}[/tex]

[tex]^oC=(130^oF-32)\times \frac{5}{9}[/tex]

[tex]^oC=54.44[/tex]

Now we have to determine the temperature in Kelvin.

[tex]K=273.15+^oC[/tex]

[tex]K=273.15+(54.44^oC)[/tex]

[tex]K=327.59[/tex]

Therefore, the temperature in degree Celsius and Kelvin are, [tex]54.44^oC\text{ and }327.59K[/tex]
