Degree Celsius (°C)

Definition:
The Degree Celsius scale measures temperature relative to the freezing and boiling points of water.
It’s widely used in daily lifeweather forecastscooking, and science.

Key Facts About Degree Celsius

  • Exact value: 0°C = 273.15 K
  • Relationship to other units: 1°C = 1 K (difference)
  • Common abbreviation: °C
  • Notation tips: Always include the degree symbol before “C.

Kelvin (K)

Definition:
The Kelvin scale is the SI base unit of temperature used in physics, chemistry, and engineering.
It starts from absolute zero, the point where all molecular motion stops.

Key Facts About Kelvin

  • Exact value: 0 K = -273.15°C
  • Relationship to other units: 1 K = 1°C (difference)
  • Common abbreviation: K
  • Notation tips: Kelvin is written without the degree symbol (no °).

Degree Celsius to Kelvin Conversion Formula

Formula:

K = °C + 273.15

°C to K Conversion Examples

Example 1: 0°C to K
Step 1: Write the formula = K = °C + 273.15
Step 2: Substitute = 0 + 273.15
Step 3: Result = 273.15 K

Example 2: 25°C to K
Step 1: K = °C + 273.15
Step 2: Substitute = 25 + 273.15
Step 3: Result = 298.15 K

Example 3: -40°C to K
Step 1: K = °C + 273.15
Step 2: Substitute = -40 + 273.15
Step 3: Result = 233.15 K

Kelvin to Degree Celsius Conversion Formula

Formula:

°C = K - 273.15

K to °C Conversion Examples

Example 1: 273.15 K to °C
Step 1: Formula = °C = K - 273.15
Step 2: Substitute = 273.15 - 273.15
Step 3: Result = 0°C

Example 2: 298.15 K to °C
Step 1: °C = K - 273.15
Step 2: Substitute = 298.15 - 273.15
Step 3: Result = 25°C

Example 3: 373.15 K to °C
Step 1: °C = K - 273.15
Step 2: Substitute = 373.15 - 273.15
Step 3: Result = 100°C
