Chapter 1: Q2DQ (page 1)

If you heat the air inside a rigid, sealed container until its Kelvin temperature doubles, the air pressure in the container will also double. Is the same thing true if you double the Celsius temperature of the air in the container? Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

If we double the Kelvin scale value, then the Celsius scale values does not double up.

Step by step solution

01

Relation between Kelvin scale and Celsius scale

The relation between Kelvin scale and Celsius scale is Tk=Tc+273.

02

Double both the Kelvin and Celsius values

Consider Tk=100K. The Celsius scale will become

Tc=100-273Tc=173掳C

Now, double the kelvin scale value. We will get Tk=200K. The Celsius scale value will be

Tc=200-273Tc=-73掳C

Clearly, -73掳Cis not the double of -173掳C.

Hence, if we double the Kelvin scale value, then the Celsius scale values does not double up.
