Bookmark or Share- Celsius conversion calculators, tables and formulas (ºC)In 1742, Celsius created a temperature scale wherein 0 degrees was the boiling point of water and 100 degrees the freezing point. Around this time other physicists independently developed a similar scale but reversed, such that 0 degrees was the melting point of ice and 100 degrees the boiling point of water.
- Celsius to Kelvin (°C to K) - Metric ConversionThe Celsius scale is the most commonly used temperature scale worldwide despite not being widespread in the US. Celsius divides the range between the freezing and boiling points of water into 100 equal degrees. The freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius (0°C) and the boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius (100°C).
- Kelvin to Celsius (K to °C) - Metric ConversionOn the other hand, the Celsius scale is a relative temperature scale, where zero degrees Celsius (0 °C) represents the freezing point of water. Converting from Kelvin to Celsius is useful for several reasons. Firstly, the Celsius scale is more commonly used in everyday life and in many scientific applications.
- Fahrenheit to Celsius (°F to °C) - Metric ConversionCelsius, also known as Centigrade in some settings, is used in the majority of the world for temperature measurement. Created by Anders Celsius, a Swedish astronomer in the mid-1700s, the freezing point of water is denoted as 0 degrees C while the boiling point of water is 100 degrees C.
- Celsius to Fahrenheit (ºC to ºF) - Metric ConversionThe other point at which Celsius was set – 100 degrees Celsius – was defined as the boiling point of water. Since its definition, the Celsius scale has been redefined to peg it to Kelvin. Zero degrees Celsius is now defined as 273.15K. As one degree Celsius is equal to one Kelvin, boiling point of water is equal to 273.15 + 100 = 373.15 Kelvin.
