Understanding Temperature Scales

Celsius (°C)

The most widely used temperature scale worldwide. Based on the freezing (0°C) and boiling (100°C) points of water. Created by Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius in 1742.

Fahrenheit (°F)

Primarily used in the United States. Water freezes at 32°F and boils at 212°F. Created by German physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in 1724.

Kelvin (K)

The absolute temperature scale used in science. Starts at absolute zero (0 K = -273.15°C). Named after Lord Kelvin (William Thomson).

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are the conversions?

Our Temperature Converter uses exact mathematical formulas and provides results with maximum precision. All conversions are based on internationally accepted temperature conversion standards.

What's the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit?

Celsius uses water's freezing (0°) and boiling (100°) points as reference, with 100 degrees between them. Fahrenheit uses 32° for freezing and 212° for boiling, with 180 degrees between them.

When should I use Kelvin?

Kelvin is used in scientific calculations, especially in physics and chemistry, because it's an absolute scale starting from absolute zero where all molecular motion stops.

Is my data safe?

Absolutely! All conversions happen directly in your browser. No data is sent to our servers, ensuring complete privacy and security for your calculations.
