What is Celsius?
Celsius (symbol: °C) is a scale and unit of measurement for temperature.
As an SI derived unit, it is used by most countries in the world. It is named after the Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius, who developed a similar temperature scale.
Common Uses
The Celsius scale is used globally for weather reports, scientific research, and in domestic settings (such as water and oven temperatures). It is defined by the freezing point of water (0°C) and the boiling point of water (100°C) at standard atmospheric pressure.
What is Kelvin?
The Kelvin (symbol: K) is the base unit of temperature in the International System of Units (SI).
It is named after the physicist William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin.
Common Uses
The Kelvin scale is primarily used in scientific fields and engineering. It is an absolute temperature scale, meaning it starts at absolute zero, the theoretical point where all molecular motion ceases. 0 K is equivalent to -273.15°C.
