Respuesta :

Answer:  [tex]25.6^0C[/tex],  [tex]298.6K[/tex]

Explanation:

Temperature of the gas is defined as the degree of hotness or coldness of a body. It is expressed in units like [tex]^0C[/tex] and [tex]K[/tex]  

These units of temperature are inter convertible.

We are given:

Temperature of the gas = [tex]78^0F[/tex]

Converting this unit of temperature into [tex]^0C[/tex] by using conversion factor:

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

[tex]^0C=\frac{5}{9}\times (78^oF-32)[/tex]

[tex]25.6^0C[/tex]

Converting this unit of temperature into [tex]K[/tex] by using conversion factor:

[tex]K=t^0C+273[/tex]

[tex]K=25.6+273[/tex]

[tex]298.6K[/tex]

Thus the temperature on the Celsius and Kelvin scales are [tex]25.6^0C[/tex]  and [tex]298.6K[/tex] respectively.
