Question

7. What effect will a 1.0°C error (all temperature readings are 1.0°C greater than the actual value) in determining absolute 0 K? Justify your answer. 8 What effect will a 0.10 atm error (reading is 0.10 atm. greater than the actual value) greater than the actual value) have in determining absolute 0 K? Justify your answer.

Answer 1

7. It''s reading at 0 Kelvin is shown by 1 Kelvin or there will be error of 1 Kelvin

because 0 K = - 273⁰ C now if due to error temperature is shown 1⁰ C higher then on temperature scale its value is -272⁰ C and when you convert it to kelvin scale than you will find that -272⁰ C  is equivalent to 1 Kelvin

8. At 0 K there should be 0 atm pressure but due to error of 0.1 atm pressure it will show that there is 0 .1 atm pressure at absolute 0 Kelvin
