9 Converting temperature scales (Celsius scale Fahrenheit scale Kelvin scale)
1. 50 oC = ….. oF ?
Lösung
At standard atmospheric Luftdruck auf, the freezing point of water is 0 oC on the Celsius-Skala und 32 oF on the Fahrenheit scale. At standard atmospheric pressure, the boiling point of water is 100 oC on the Celsius scale and 212 oF on the Fahrenheit scale.
0 oC = 32 oF und 100 oC = 212 oF. A change of 5 Co = a change of 9 Fo.
For a Celsius scale, the distance between 0 oC und 100 oC divided into 100 equal intervals. For a Fahrenheit scale, the distance between 0 oC und 100 oC divided into 180 equal intervals.
ToF = (180/100) ToC+32
ToF = (9/5) ToC+32
ToF = (9/5) 50 + 32
ToF = (9) 10 + 32
ToF = 90 + 32
ToF = 122
50 oC = 122 oF
2. 86 oF = ….. oC?
Lösung
ToC = (100/180)(ToF – 32)
ToC = (5/9)(ToF – 32)
ToC = (5/9)(86 – 32)
ToC = (5/9)(54)
ToC = (5)(6)
ToC = 30
86 oF = 30 oC
3. 50oC = ….. K ?
Lösung
T = T oC+273
T = 50 + 273
T = 323
50 oC = 323 K
4. 212oF = ….. K ?
Lösung
ToC = (100/180)(ToF – 32)
ToC = (5/9)(ToF – 32)
ToC = (5/9)(212 – 32)
ToC = (5/9)(180)
ToC = (5)(20)
ToC = 100
212 oF = 100 oC+273
212 oF = 373 K
5. x oC = x oF
x = ….. ?
Lösung
1 : Converting Celsius scale into Fahrenheit scale

2 : Converting Fahrenheit scale into Celsius scale

6. 122°F = ….. Celsius
Lösung
The conversion between the two temperature scales can be written :
TC = 5/9 (TF - 32)
TC = Temperatur in Celsius, TF = temperature in Fahrenheit
The temperature in Celsius :
TC = 5/9 (122 – 32) = TC = 5/9 (90) = 5 (10)
TC = 50 oC
7. The figure below shows the temperature measurement of a liquid with the Fahrenheit scale thermometer! If the temperature of the liquid is measured using a Celsius scale thermometer, then was the liquid temperature.
Bekannt:
Fahrenheit Treppe (TF) = 95oF
Gesucht : Celsius-Skala
Lösung:
At a pressure of 1 atm, der Gefrierpunkt von Wasser is 0 °C while the Fahrenheit scale is 32 oF. Conversely, the boiling point of water for the Celsius scale is 100 oC while the Fahrenheit scale is 212 oF.
On the Celsius scale, between 0 °C and 100 ° C there are 100 ° while on the Fahrenheit scale between 32 °F to 212 °F there is 180°.
TC = 100/180 (TF - 32)
TC = 5/9 (TF - 32)
TC = 5/9 (95 - 32)
TC = 5/9 (63)
TC = 315 / 9
TC = 35oC
8. Based on figure below, determine the temperature P on the Celsius thermometer.
Lösung
TC = 100/180 (TF - 32) 
TC = 5/9 (TF - 32)
TC = 5/9 (104 – 32)
TC = 5/9 (72)
TC = 360 / 9
TC = 40 oC
9. If the temperature of Celsius scale as shown in figure below, determine the temperature of Fahrenheit scale as shown in figure below.
Lösung:
ToF = (180/100) ToC+32
ToF = (9/5) ToC+32
ToF = (9/5) 60 + 32
ToF = (9) 12 + 32
ToF = 108 + 32
ToF = 140
