Temp Units

[Henry Krasner 1C]

What is the unit of temperature we use in the Van’t Hoff equation? K or C?

[Nahelly Alfaro-2C]

I believe you would K units for temperature.

[Cole Elsner 2J]

It would be in K. Think about the units for R! They all need to cancel out

[Tatum Keichline 2B]

The units must cancel out. K cancels with the other units, so use K.

[sonalivij]

K. If given C you should convert using K=C+273.15

[Millicent Navarro 1I]

Kelvin! When you write out the Van’t Hoff equation, the K cancels out from the R constant.

[Raj_Bains_2C]

You would use Kelvin (K).

[Casandra]

For the Van Hoff equation you use units of K for temp, and if given in C, convert by adding 273.

[Roberto Gonzalez 1L]

^Kelvin would be the units used, however if you get confused just remember that the gas constant R in the Van't Hoff Eq has units of J/K *mol.

[harshitasarambale4I]

Pick your R according to the correct units.

[904837647]

It's in Kelvin.

[904837647]

It's in Kelvin.
