Re: K meaning
K in the Boltzmann formula is simply the Boltzmann constant which is 1.380649×10^−23 J/K.

Re: K meaning
Also, we do not have to memorize this constant, as it is on the constants/equations sheet Dr. Lavelle made for us

Re: K meaning
The Boltzmann constant, k, is on our equation sheet! it is equal to 1.38x10^-23 J/K. Be careful not to confuse it with K, the equilibrium constant for a reaction.

Re: K meaning
k (lower case) is taken as 1.38x10^-23 J/K and can be found in the top right corner of the constants sheet

Re: K meaning
Just to clear any confusion, it's a lowercase k and it is equal to 1.38 x 10^-23 J/K (<-this K is for Kelvins)

Re: K meaning
K stands for the Boltzmann constant which is 1.380649×10^−23 J/K. You can find it on the equations worksheet :)

Re: K meaning
Capital K is the Boltzmann constant and it is roughly 1.38x10^-23 J/K. However, it is on the equation sheet so I believe we are not expected to memorize it.

It is located on the very top right on the Constants and Formulas Sheet.

Re: K meaning
I believe that K just stands for the Boltzmann constant which equals 1.380649×10^−23 J/K
