Answer to Question #214627 in Civil and Environmental Engineering for syra

Question

Boiling point of water to Kelvin. Show the solution

Answer 1

The boiling point of water in Celsius scale is 100 degree Celsius.

So as per formula $Kelvin =273.15 + C$

C=100 degree Celsius

Kelvin =273.15 + 100

Kelvin=373.15

So boiling point of water in Kelvin is 373.15 K.

Remember that boiling point of water is pressure dependent . If we decrease the atmospheric pressure boiling point of water will also decrease. All the values that i gave is at 760 mm Hg.
