1.	The triple points of neon and carbon dioxide are 24.57 K and 216.55 respectively. Express these temperatures on the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales.
Answer» Solution :(1) TRIPLE point for Neom `T=24.57` K `:.T_(C)=T(K)-273.15` `=24.57-273.15` `=-248.58^(@)C` Now, `T_(F)=9/5T_(C)+32` `=9/5(-248.58)+32` `=-447.44+32` `=-415.44^(@)F` (2) Triple point for `CO_(2),T=216.55K` `T_(C)=T(K)-273.15` `=216.55-273.15` `=-56.6^(@)C` `:.T_(F)=9/5T_(C)+32` `=9/5(-56.6)+32` `=-101.88+32` `=-69.88^(@)F`
