An enzyme works best at 98.6°F.

The equation used to describe it requires the temperature to be in K.



please help asap
What is the correct temperature?

Use (F×0.555)+255.37=K or (K−255.37)×1.8=F .

37 K
236 K
310 K
482 K

Answer:

310.093K

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Temperature of the enzyme = 98.6°F

Unknown:

We are to convert the temperature from the fahrenheit scale to Kelvin scale:

Solution

Properly writing the equation given to solve the problem:

  K =  (F x 0.55) + 255.37

   F = (K - 255.37) x 1.8

K stands for the temperature in kelvin and F is the temperature in fahrenheit.

The first equation would be a lot more easier to use:

   K = (98.6 x 0.555) + 255.37 =  54.723 + 255.37 = 310.093K
