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.
