Temperature
When solving equilibrium problems is there a preferred temperature unit we should be using? I noticed in some homework problems that they use Kelvin and Celcius, should we be converting one of them or does it not matter?

Re: Temperature
I think we should always use Kelvin unless you are just using the temperature difference.

Re: Temperature
Unless it says otherwise, we should be using Kelvin, and converting other units into Kelvin

Re: Temperature
Kelvin is the most commonly and used unit for temperature when solving problems regarding equilibria. When using the formula PV=nRT, for example, the unit for temperature must be in Kelvin.
