Understanding Temperature Conversion
Temperature measures thermal energy. Celsius is the global standard, Fahrenheit is common in the US, and Kelvin is used in scientific contexts. Each scale has different zero points and intervals.
| Unit Type | Unit Name | Value in Celsius (°C) / Kelvin (K) |
|---|---|---|
| Reference | Absolute Zero | -273.15°C = -459.67°F = 0K |
| Reference | Water Freezing | 0°C = 32°F = 273.15K |
| Reference | Room Temperature | ~20°C = ~68°F = ~293K |
| Reference | Body Temperature | ~37°C = ~98.6°F = ~310K |
| Reference | Water Boiling | 100°C = 212°F = 373.15K |
Conversion Tip
Temperature scales measure thermal energy. Celsius is used globally, while Fahrenheit remains common in the United States. Kelvin is the scientific standard.
Quick Reference
- Water freezes at 0°C = 32°F = 273.15K
- Water boils at 100°C = 212°F = 373.15K
- Room temperature ≈ 20°C = 68°F = 293.15K
- Body temperature ≈ 37°C = 98.6°F = 310.15K
- Absolute zero = -273.15°C = -459.67°F = 0K
- °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32
- K = °C + 273.15
