Question

Let us say temperature of a body in degree Celsius and degree Rankine are related as TC = 50 + 3TR, what is the change in temperature in Kelvin, if the change in temperature in degree Rankine is 100^oR?

(a) 300 K

(b) 180 K

(c) 100 K

(d) 90 K

The question was asked during an internship interview.

I'd like to ask this question from Temperature in division Temperature and Pressure of Basic Chemical Engineering

Answer 1

Right answer is (a) 300 K

To explain: ∆TC = 3∆TR, => ∆TC = 3*100 = 300^oC, => ∆TK = ∆TC = 300 K.
