Oxygen boils at \(-183^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). This temperature is approximately

  1. A \(215^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  2. B \(-297^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  3. C \(329^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
  4. D \(361^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(-297^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know, \(\frac{9 C}{5}=F-32\) \(\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \quad F=C \times \frac{9}{5}+32 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad F=-183 \times \frac{9}{5}+32 \\ & =-297.4^{\circ} \mathrm{F} \approx-297^{\circ} \mathrm{F} \\ & \end{aligned}\)
