Common Units

Here are some common units of pressure and the important temperature conversion we need to know:

 

Most often when using gas laws, you will need to get the temperature from degrees celsius to degrees kelvin. This is a VERY simple conversion that can be done by adding 273.15 to the degrees celsius reading as 0 degrees celsius is equivalent to 273.15 degrees kelvin. Here is an example:

26 degrees celsius+ 273.15 =299.15 Degrees Kelvin.
