What is the temperature of melting ice in kelvins? Of boiling water?
To Find: The temperature of melting ice and boiling water in kelvins.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Temperature is a measure of how cold or hot a body is. The temperature of a body is also a measure of average kinetic energy of molecules that constitute it. Temperature of a body is measured using thermometer on mainly three thermodynamic scale- Kelvin, Celsius and Fahrenheit.
At melting point, substance coverts from solid form to liquid and at boiling point, substance converts from liquid form to vapor. The temperature of melting ice is
