Type the correct answer in the box. Express your answer to six significant figures.

Given: [tex]K = ^{\circ}C + 273.15[/tex]

What is the temperature of the flame in degrees Celsius?

You measure the flame of a candle and get a reading of [tex]1,376.06 K[/tex]. This value is equal to [tex]\square[/tex].



Answer :

To find the temperature of the flame in degrees Celsius when the temperature in Kelvin is given, we use the conversion formula:

[tex]\[ K = {}^\circ C + 273.15 \][/tex]

Given:
[tex]\[ K = 1376.06 \][/tex]

We need to solve for [tex]${}^\circ C$[/tex] (degrees Celsius). Rearranging the formula, we get:

[tex]\[ {}^\circ C = K - 273.15 \][/tex]

Substituting the given value of [tex]\( K \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ {}^\circ C = 1376.06 - 273.15 \][/tex]

Perform the subtraction:

[tex]\[ {}^\circ C = 1102.91 \][/tex]

Therefore, the temperature of the flame in degrees Celsius is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{1102.91} \][/tex]

Expressed to six significant figures, it is:

[tex]\[ \boxed{1102.91} \][/tex]
