A resource for converting between five different temperature scales. Also provides the formulas and the temperature scale ranges.

By the end of this section, you will be able to define temperature; convert temperatures between the Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin scales; define thermal equilibrium; and state the zeroth law of thermodynamics.

A number line comparing temperatures in Celsius and Fahrenheit.

Explore the relationship between degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius. This video focuses on developing an expression to model the relationship between the temperature scales using a line graph to calculate slope and the y intercept.

Enter either Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature for conversion.

Enter either Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature for conversion.

Learn about the two main temperature scales, Celsius and Fahrenheit, and how to convert temperature from one to another. View two conversion examples and a chart of typical temperatures, and use the conversion tool.

An interactive thermometer shows temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit and "translates" the temperature you choose into real life situations, like "Fun in the Snow," "Nice Sunny Day," or "Boiling Water."

The Kelvin, Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales are discussed. Site lists and explains formulas for converting between the different scales.

In this activity, students learn how to convert measures of temperature between the three different scales - Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin. The history and uses of each are very briefly explained as well.
