    TEMPERATURE UNITS AND CONVERSION
    Kelvin (K) – SI Unit 1. Convert 41OF to OC.
    Celsius (C)
    Fahrenheit (F)
    Solution: (41oF - 32) × (5/9) = 9 × (5/9) = 5oC
    𝑲 = 𝑶𝑭 + 𝟒𝟓𝟗. 𝟔𝟗
    𝑲 = 𝑶𝑪 + 𝟐𝟕𝟑. 𝟏𝟔
    𝑶𝑪 = 𝟓(𝑶𝑭 − 𝟑𝟐𝑶)
    2. Convert 10 K to OC.
    𝟗

    Solution: 10 + 273.15 = 283.15 OC

    Guide Questions
    Part A. Answer the question/s concisely.

    1. Give an example of a physical property that varies with temperature and


    describe how it is used to measure temperature.
    2. Describe a situation in which heat transfer occurs.
    3. The brakes in a car increase in temperature by ΔT when bringing the car to rest
    from a speed v. How much greater would ΔT be if the car initially had twice the
    speed? You may assume the car stops fast enough that no heat transfers out of
    the brakes.

    Guide Questions
    Part B. Answer each problem with complete solution.

    1. If 4.168 kJ of heat is added to a calorimeter containing 75.40 g of water, the


    temperature of the water and the calorimeter increases from 24.58 degrees C to 35.82
    degrees C. Calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter (in J/degree C). The specific
    heat of water is 4.184 J/g degrees C.
    2. A 10.0 g piece of metal at 100OC is transferred to a calorimeter containing 50.0 mL of
    water initially at 23.0OC. Calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal if the heat
    capacity of the calorimeter, Ccal, is 25.0 J/OC. The final temperature of the system is
    25.6OC.
