Units of Measurement/Temperature

The SI unit for Temperature is Kelvin (K). However, Celsius is also often used as a measure of temperature. The formula to convert Celsius to Kelvin is K = C + 273.15. So 25 degrees Celsius will equal to 298.15 Kelvin. 25 degrees Celcius or 298.15 Kelvin is called normal temperature. There is also fahrenheit. The formula to convert Kelvin to fahrenhiet is F = K + 273.15
