Celsius → Kelvin

Convert °C to K.

Celsius to Kelvin Converter

This calculator converts a temperature from degrees Celsius (°C) to Kelvin (K).

Use Cases

  • Scientific Research: Standardizing temperature for physics and chemistry equations.
  • Thermodynamics: calculating energy changes where absolute temperature is required.
  • Meteorology: High-altitude atmospheric modeling.

Formula

To convert Celsius to Kelvin, add 273.15 to the Celsius temperature:

K=°C+273.15K = °C + 273.15

Where:

  • 0°C is the freezing point of water (273.15 K)
  • Absolute Zero is 0 K (-273.15°C)
