Question

the temperature of a substance changes by 1 k. this is equal to a temperature change of ______? select the correct answer below: 1°c 1°f 273°c 273°f

Explanation:

Step1: Recall temperature - scale relationship

The size of one Kelvin is the same as the size of one degree Celsius. The conversion between Celsius ($T_C$) and Kelvin ($T_K$) is given by $T_C=T_K - 273.15$. When we consider a change in temperature $\Delta T$, $\Delta T_K=\Delta T_C$.

Answer:

A. $1^{\circ}C$
