At any point in the Celsius scale, the difference between degrees Celsius and degrees Kelvin is 273.15. At no point do the two scales cross.
If you have a known value for temperature in degrees Centigrade (Celsius), say for example 20oC then you simply add this to the value 273.15 to obtain a value of the temperature in Kelvin. Hence:- 273.15 + 20 = 293.15K
The absolute value of the temperature zero degrees Celsius is 273.15 kelvin.
-56.35 degrees celsius. To find celsius, subtract 273.15 from the value in kelvins.
Kelvin temperatures are based on absolute zero, not the freezing point of water. The degree intervals are the same size as Celsius degrees, but begin 273.15 degrees lower. To calculate Kelvin, simply add 273.15 to the Celsius temperature value. To calculate the Celsius temperature, subtract 273.15 from the K value. °C = K - 273.15 K = °C + 273.15 Note that temperatures on the Kelvin scale do not use degree marks (°), just the letter K. Example : for the temperature 100 K, 100 K = -173.15°C Example : for the temperature 20 °C, 20 °C = 293.15 K
