A. \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 32^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) or \(273 \mathrm{~K}\) B. \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 4^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) and \(100 \mathrm{~K}\) C. \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 212^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) and \(273 \mathrm{~K}\) D. \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 32^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) and \(273 \mathrm{~K}\)
Correct Answer: C
Explanation
- The lower fixed point (the melting point of ice) is \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 32^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) or \(273 \mathrm{~K}\) - The upper fixed point (the boiling point of water) is \(100^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 212^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) or \(373 \mathrm{~K}\)
