Calculation
Réaumur
The Réaumur scale is a temperature scale developed by the French scientist René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur. On this scale, the freezing point of water is 0 degrees, and the boiling point is 80 degrees under standard atmospheric pressure. While not as widely used as Celsius or Fahrenheit, the Réaumur scale was historically employed in some European countries for scientific and industrial purposes.
Kelvin
The Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale named after the Scottish physicist William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin. It is commonly used in scientific and engineering applications where an absolute temperature reference is required. The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero, the point at which all molecular motion ceases. The freezing point of water on the Kelvin scale is 273.15 K, and the boiling point is 373.15 K.
