The joule is a unit of energy. The Kelvin is a unit of temperature. The two units have different
dimensions, and are used to measure different types of quantities. Neither one can be converted
to the other.
If the weatherman predicts a high temperature of 68 degrees for tomorrow, there's no way
you can convert that to an equivalent number of foot-pounds, newton-meters, or kilowatt-hours.

Joules and Kelvin are different types of units used to measure energy and temperature, respectively. They are not directly convertible because they represent different physical quantities. Joules measure energy, whereas Kelvin measures temperature. Conversion between the two requires consideration of the specific physical process involved.

What are the units of enthalpy?
The units for entropy are joules per kelvin (J K-1)
Is the increase in 1 kelvin greater than 1 celsius?
No, it is not. it can be seen when looking at the conversion factor of Kelvin to Celsius, let K=kelvin and C=celsius, then the equation is K=273.15+C, the units are changed but the value of change is the same.
What is heat capacity temperature measured in?
The heat capacity of a substance is typically measured in units of energy per degree Celsius (Joules per degree Celsius, J/C) or energy per Kelvin (Joules per Kelvin, J/K).
-55 degrees Fahrenheit is what on the kelvin scale?
-55 degrees Fahrenheit is approximately 230 Kelvin on the Kelvin scale. You can convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin by adding 459.67 to the Fahrenheit temperature and then multiplying by 5/9.
What is dimention of universal gas constant?
In SI units J K-1 mol-1 (Joules/ Kelvin mol or Joules per kelvin per mol) in some older chemistry text books they quote L atm K-1 mol-1 (liter atmospheres per degree kelvin per mol) (see wikipedia "Gas constant" for a list of the dimensions in other systems of units)
How do you write the conversion factor for Celsius and Kelvin?
Celsius to Kelvin conversion formula The temperature T in Kelvin (K) is equal to the temperature T in degrees Celsius (°C) plus 273.15: T(K) = T(°C) + 273.15
What is the conversion factor for Kelvin to Fahrenheit?
You can use this equation to convert Kelvin to degrees Fahrenheit: [°F] = [K] × 1.8 − 459.67
What is the conversion formula between Celsius and kelvin?
The formula is K=C+273
What is a valid unit for specific heat?
Joule/kilogram-kelvin The SI unit is joules / kelvin. This is valid for an object of any size, but if you want the typical specific heat for a certain type of material, you have to standardize it, resulting in either joules / (kelvin x kilogram) or joules / (kelvin x mole).
What is a relation between joule and kelvin?
The relation between joules and kelvin is in the context of energy and temperature. For an ideal gas, the change in internal energy of a system can be related to temperature change in Kelvin using the specific heat capacity of the substance. This relationship is given by the equation ΔU = nCvΔT, where ΔU is the change in internal energy in joules, n is the number of moles of gas, Cv is the molar specific heat capacity at constant volume, and ΔT is the temperature change in Kelvin.
What is the different temperature levels between fahernheit and kelvin?
What is the different temperature level between degrees Fahrenheit and kelvin? Scroll down to related links and look at "Conversion of temperatures and formulas".
What is the measurement for specific heat?
The unit for specific heat is Joules/g-Kelvin or it can be Joules/g-Celsius J= Joules g= Grams C= Celsius
What is the si units of entropy?
The SI unit of entropy is joules per kelvin (J/K). Entropy is a measure of the disorder or randomness in a system, and it quantifies the amount of energy that is not available to do work.
Formula for kelvin conversion?
to convert Celsius to kelvin just add 273 degrees
Is celsius temperature larger then kelvin temperature?
No the Kelvin temperature is higher. The conversion for Kelvin to Celsius is K=c+273.15.
What would be 50000c on a kelvin scale?
50273.15 K Conversion from Celsius to Kelvin is the temperature in Celsius + 273.15. Conversion from Kelvin to Celsius is the temperature in Kelvin - 273.15. Celsius and Kelvin use the same interval in the scale, however Kelvin starts at 0 degrees where Celsius starts at -273.15 degrees (absolute zero).
How many degrees Fahrenheit equals one degree kelvin?
One degree Kelvin is equivalent to 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit. This conversion is based on the relationship between the Kelvin and Fahrenheit temperature scales.
