The boiling points of diethyl ether, benzene, and dimethyl ether are 34.6∘C, 80.1∘C, and -24∘ C respectively. Which one of the following correctly represents their boiling points in the Kelvin scale respectively?

The boiling points of diethyl ether, benzene, and dimethyl ether are 34.6∘C, 80.1∘C, and -24∘ C respectively. Which one of the following correctly represents their boiling points in the Kelvin scale respectively? Correct Answer 307.6 K, 353.1 K, 249.15 K

The correct answer is 307.6 K, 353.1 K, 249.15 K.

Key Points

  • The basic formula to convert Celcius to Kelvin is
    • °C + 273.15 = K
  • For diethyl ether 34.6C+ 273.15 = 307.75​ K
  • For Benzene 80.1C+ 273.15 = 353.1 K 
  • For dimethyl ether -24∘ + 273.15 = 249.15​ K
