Professor X is doing an experiment, based on the data controlled temperature turned to 56 °F. What will be the temperature in °C?
Part A: For calculations involving gaseous systems, it is important to use the kelvin temperature scale.
What is the temperature in kelvin if a thermometer reads 221 °C?
Part B: If we are given the temperature in Kelvin, we may need to turn this back into Celsius (most thermometers use the Celsius scale).
A gas has a temperature of 286 K. What is this temperature in Celsius?
A technician used a section of glass tubing to measure the density of a liquid. The inside diameter of the tubing was known to be 0.87 mm. The mass of an empty piece of tubing was 0.785 g. When liquid was drawn into the tubing to a height of 4.0 cm, the tubing and liquid has a mass of 0.816 g. The density of the liquid is
