About Temperature Converter

The Temperature Converter converts between Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (°F), and Kelvin (K) — the three scales used in science, medicine, cooking, and weather. Instant, accurate conversion without memorizing formulas.

Conversion Formulas

Celsius to Fahrenheit: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. Fahrenheit to Celsius: °C = (°F − 32) × 5/9. Celsius to Kelvin: K = °C + 273.15. Kelvin is an absolute scale starting at absolute zero (−273.15°C), used in physics and chemistry.

Reference Points

Water freezes at 0°C (32°F) and boils at 100°C (212°F) at sea level. Normal body temperature is approximately 37°C (98.6°F). Room temperature is roughly 20–22°C (68–72°F). Celsius and Fahrenheit intersect at −40°.

Practical Uses

Convert oven temperatures for international recipes (180°C ≈ 350°F). Interpret weather forecasts when traveling abroad. Convert laboratory measurements. Understand medical thermometers using different scales.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Multiply Celsius by 9/5 and add 32. Formula — °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32.

How to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius?

Subtract 32 from Fahrenheit, then multiply by 5/9. Formula — °C = (°F - 32) × 5/9.

What is absolute zero?

Absolute zero is 0 Kelvin (-273.15°C or -459.67°F), the lowest possible temperature.

How to convert Celsius to Kelvin?

Add 273.15 to Celsius. K = °C + 273.15.

At what temperature are Celsius and Fahrenheit equal?

-40 degrees. -40°C = -40°F.

What is normal body temperature?

37°C (98.6°F), though normal range is 36.1-37.2°C (97-99°F).

What is room temperature in Fahrenheit?

Room temperature is typically 20-22°C (68-72°F).

Why are there different temperature scales?

Celsius is based on water's freezing/boiling points. Fahrenheit uses a different reference. Kelvin is an absolute scale for science.

How to convert oven temperatures?

180°C ≈ 350°F (moderate oven). 200°C ≈ 400°F (hot oven).

Is Kelvin used in everyday life?

Kelvin is primarily used in scientific and engineering applications, not everyday temperature measurement.
