Hot & Cold: The 3 Scales

Fahrenheit vs. Celsius

The eternal debate! Celsius makes sense to water: 0° is freezing, 100° is boiling. Fahrenheit makes sense to people: 0° is "really cold outside" and 100° is "really hot outside".

What is Kelvin?

Kelvin is the scientist's scale. It starts at Absolute Zero (-273.15°C), the point where all atomic motion stops. There are no negative numbers in Kelvin!
