    The Kelvin (abbreviated K) scale measures temperature just like Celsius or Fahrenheit. 0 K is the lowest possible temperature on the Kelvin scale, where everything stops moving. It's absolute zero, and theory says if the temperature of something was at that temperature, the small molecules in that something wouldn't move at all. Besides that, the Kelvin scale and Celsius scale work well together. To convert kelvin to Celcius, simply subtract 273.14. (I.E. 273.14K = 0 deg. C.)
    0 degrees C is 273 K which is freezing
    100 degrees C is 373 K which is boiling
    What is the Kelvin scale?

    Tom would you read the OP please.
