Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 7
hfill . \
To convert $^circ text{C}$ to $text{K}$, we use the equation

begin{equation}
T_text{K} = T_text{C} + 273
end{equation}

Step 2
2 of 7
hfill . \
For Option A, we plug in $T_text{C} = -273 ^circ text{C}$ to Equation (1)

$$
T_text{K} = (-273) + 273
$$

$$
T_text{K} = 0 text{K}
$$

Thus, $text{A}. -273 ^circ text{C} = 0 text{K}$ is correct so it is not the answer for this item.

Step 3
3 of 7
hfill . \
For Option B, we plug in $T_text{C} = 273 ^circ text{C}$ to Equation (1)

$$
T_text{K} = 273 + 273
$$

$$
T_text{K} = 546 text{K}
$$

Thus, $text{B}. 273 ^circ text{C} = 546 text{K}$ is correct so it is not the answer for this item.

Step 4
4 of 7
hfill . \
To convert $text{K}$ to $^circ text{C}$, we use the equation

begin{equation} tag{2}
T_text{C} = T_text{K} – 273
end{equation}

Step 5
5 of 7
hfill . \
For Option C, we plug in $T_text{K} = 298 text{K}$ to Equation (2)

$$
T_text{C} = 298 – 273
$$

$$
T_text{C} = 25 ^circ text{C}
$$

Thus, $boxed{text{C}. 298 text{K} = 546 ^circ text{C}}$ is incorrect thus it is the answer we are looking for.

Step 6
6 of 7
hfill . \
For Option D, we plug in $T_text{K} = 88 text{K}$ to Equation (2)

$$
T_text{C} = 88 – 273
$$

$$
T_text{C} = -185 ^circ text{C}
$$

Thus, $text{D}. 88 text{K} = -185 ^circ text{C}$ is correct so it is not the answer for this item.

Result

$$
text{C}. 298 text{K} = 571 ^circ text{C}
$$
