Formulas and Key Relations

Temperature, Heat and Thermometry

t={(X_t - X_i) / (X_s - X_i)} × n

C / 5 = (F - 32) / 9

T = t_c + 273.15

Gas Laws and Absolute Temperature

PV = constant

V_t = V_0(1 + t/273)

PV = RT

Thermal Expansion of Solids

ΔL = α × L × Δt

β = 2α

γ = 3α

α : β : γ = 1 : 2 : 3

Thermal Expansion of Liquids and Density

γ_r = γ_a + γ_g

ρ' = ρ(1 - γΔT)

T = tc + 273.15.

Charles' law

Vt = V0(1 + t/273).

At constant pressure, V ∝ T.

Key relations

The Celsius and Fahrenheit scales are related by C/5 = (F-32)/9.
