Temperature Conversions
2
Temperature Particles are always moving. When you heat water, the water molecules move faster. When molecules move faster, the substance gets hotter. When a substance gets hotter, its temperature goes up.
3
Temperature is a measure of how hot or cold an object is compared to another object. indicates that heat flows from the object with a higher temperature to the object with a lower temperature. is measured using a thermometer that contains a liquid that expands with heat and contracts with cooling..
4
Temperature Scales Are have reference points for the boiling and freezing points of water.
5
A. What is the temperature of freezing water? 1) 0°F 2) 0°C 3) 0 K B. What is the temperature of boiling water? 1) 100°F 2) 32°F 3) 373 K C. How many Celsius units are between the boiling and freezing points of water? 1) 1002) 1803) 273 Learning Check
6
On the, there are 180°F between the freezing and boiling points and on the, there are 100°C. 180°F = 9°F =1.8°F 100°C 5°C 1°C In the formula for the, adding 32 adjusts the zero point of water from 0°C to 32°F. T F = 9/5 T C + 32 or T F = 1.8 T C + 32 Fahrenheit Formula
7
T C is obtained by rearranging the equation for T F. T F = 1.8T C + 32 Subtract 32 from both sides. T F - 32 = 1.8T C ( +32 - 32) T F - 32 = 1.8T C Divide by 1.8 =°F - 32 = 1.8 T C 1.8 1.8 T F - 32 = T C 1.8 Celsius Formula
8
Solving A Temperature Problem A person with hypothermia has a body temperature of 34.8°C. What is that temperature in °F? T F = 1.8 T C + 32 T F = 1.8 (34.8°C) + 32° exact tenth's exact = 62.6 + 32° = 94.6°F tenth’s
9
The normal temperature of a chickadee is 105.8°F. What is that temperature on the Celsius scale? 1) 73.8°C 2) 58.8°C 3) 41.0°C Learning Check
10
A pepperoni pizza is baked at 455°F. What temperature is needed on the Celsius scale? 1) 423°C 2) 235°C 3) 221°C Learning Check
11
On a cold winter day, the temperature is –15°C. What is that temperature in °F? 1) 19°F 2) 59°F 3) 5°F Learning Check
12
The has 100 units between the freezing and boiling points of water. 100 K = or 1 K = is obtained by adding 273 to the Celsius temperature. T K = contains the lowest possible temperature, absolute zero (0 K). 0 K = Kelvin Temperature Scale
13
Temperatures
14
What is normal body temperature of 37°C in Kelvins? 1) 236 K 2) 310. K 3)342 K Learning Check
