Thermochemistry Notes

What is the relationship between Celsius temperature and Kelvin temperature?

• Kelvin + 273.15 = Degrees Celsius
• Degrees Celsius + 273.15 = Kelvin
• Degrees Celsius - 273.15 = Kelvin
• Kelvin divided by 273.15 = Degrees Celsius

On what principle does calorimetry depend?

• law of conservation of energy
• law of enthalpy
• Hess's law
• law of multiple proportions
