I just want to thank you. I finally understand temperature, I like to know why numbers are there, don't tell me to just multiply it by 5/9!!! Thank you once again, your videos are amazing.

[@hohenzollernyt4681]

Btw, I subscribe and hope others realize their mistake of not subscribing to you. And also thank you so much, this video helped a toun

[@BensChemVideos]

I'm glad the video was helpful! Thank you so much for your kind words and your support 😀

[@shibaolai6489]

Love how you explain the conversions between scales!

[@BensChemVideos]

Thank you for your kind words, and thanks for watching! 😀

[@iloveMjoda]

You're awesome man ! Thank you. I knew how the idea of it but you took it to the other thinking level. like the background and to why we have 3 different scales.

[@TheNamesElijah]

Thank you so much! Step by step was great for me

[@alirehman3939]

Dude.Thank you.I am grateful to you.

[@benreichard]

Great video!

[@BensChemVideos]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@sea-lotus]

thank you!

[@JanmayjaySingh]

bro you are just awesome this is the first video that I have found which has proper explanation of conversions keep up the good work

[@notasimp_ithink8097]

True

[@arpinemanukyan9458]

I absolutely love this video!!!! Thank you so much!!

[@phangjes6433]

Well I like it it make me understand keep it up!

[@BensChemVideos]

Will do! Thanks for your feedback, and thanks for watching!

[@williammdsilva]

Thank you sir. This was very helpful

[@taurusgemini4792]

Very well explained, thank you

[@angelina-cp6jn]

This video is so helpful! I like how it's very clear and I can understand everything. :D

[@Fatherhormesis]

this is the best video on temp scales. thanks

[@nayeemmohammadah4860]

thanks man......

[@sallychen9702]

really appreciate, thank you :)

[@namithamohan2437]

thankyou ben

[@calvinyancey317]

Thanks this helps me

[@PenguinsBeastU]

thank you so much! my teacher made no sense explaining this. Without you I would have failed this test badly.

[@devilsadvocate420]

Dude you rock thank you

[@hollywiegreffe7905]

Nicely done.

[@eulinechristinemassicott8115]

thnks alot

[@amyj6649]

I don't know why you put together all theses videos, but if I make it into nursing school, it will be thanks to your help.

[@pavithrayogithakamath]

Thanks you soooooooooo much

[@djplays1167]

But nice video btw!!!!

[@jebb125]

when I go from C to F, Cx2+30 gets you real close. if you don't need the exact temp. for doing it in you head

[@wandaperi]

What about #Réaumur?

[@AdityaCasio]

you're awesome

[@aileenjohnson2407]

I think I will pass the test now thanks

[@alisareteiwi7458]

super

[@jasyuinsdylan6767]

A Teacher Told My Friend That Fahrenheit (F) + Celsius (C) + Kelvin (K) = FCK Then, She told her : Add U In The Middle Of Fahrenheit And Celsius = FUCK *Teachers are savage*

[@simrankaur-vc5wz]

Good

[@plattypus5012]

Fahrenheit and Celsius conversions finally make sense

[@FreethinkingSecularist]

Explain why you can convert f° to c° by adding 40, divide by 1.8, and subtract the 40 you added earlier. Thanks.

[@BensChemVideos]

You can convert to celsius from Fahrenheit by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature, then multiplying that result by 5/9.

[@FreethinkingSecularist]

@@BensChemVideos Yes, I know. You gave a very good description of why that conversion works; I am asking for the same explanation as to why my method works. I want to grok it as I have the one you gave.

[@BensChemVideos]

Hmmm... good question! I tried a few examples with that formula you brought up, and it worked every time. I'll give it some more thought and get back to you.

[@BensChemVideos]

@@FreethinkingSecularist okay, I figured it out. Both formulas work because those two mathematical expressions are equivalent. If you distribute and simplify the expressions (x-32)(5/9) and (x+40)/(9/5)-40, you'll end up with (5/9)x + 160/9.

[@FreethinkingSecularist]

@@BensChemVideos Thanks a bunch! You know my method may be easier to use because you can convert either way f° - c° or the other way without having to remember to reciprocate the 5/9 fraction or the order of steps for - or + 32. For f-c divide by 1.8 and c-f multiple 1.8! Just add 40 first and subtract it at the end!

[@akashshete1695]

Ben you are awesome than BEN 10

[@karamjeetsingh5171]

It is good understanding of temperature

[@drbirtles]

Are 212 and 32f arbitrary? or was there a reason for those numbers? It seems illogical :/

[@FrodoOne1]

+Jeff Lebowski Why do you think that Celsius is exponential? (It isn't.)

[@mikeygordon4906]

Celsius and fahrenheit multiply and divide factor is:- ~1.8 x 1 = 1.8. ~1.8 x 2 = 3.6. ~1.8 x 3 = 5.4. ~1.8 x 4 = 7.2. ~1.8 x 5 = 9. ~1.8 x 6 = 10.8. ~1.8 x 7 = 12.6. ~1.8 x 8 = 14.4. ~1.8 x 9 = 16.2. ~1.8 x 10 = 18.Celsius to fahrenheit is (Celsius x 1.8) + 32.Fahrenheit to celsius is (Fahrenheit - 32) ÷ 1.8.

[@justinchobirko993]

For F and C, why didn't you just say 5F=9C +160? Would've been much more easier.. OR C=1.8F +32 or F=(C-32) /1.8

[@fanta9797]

you should become a teacher

[@BensChemVideos]

I am one.

[@harshalshinde227]

This video is a crap. U didn't explained the concept behind Kelvin. The concept is more important than the calculations and conversions.

[@thiantromp6607]

+updown 16 an your didnt got inglish.

[@rachel7804]

updown 16 the reason I clicked on this vid is because I looked for Kelvin which is my name

[@edgar_lingganay]

fanta9797 yea I agree

[@moosefactory133]

I think the Kelvin scale puts temperatures in the correct perspective

[@Madmuli]

I agree, it seems to be the most logical approach. However Celsius is based on the freezing temperature of water, which is a more familiar reference point in common life than the lowest possible temperature, therefor it seems to suit a little better. When used for scientific(-educational) purposes, Kelvin is the standard. Well, at least in most parts of the world :P

[@wandaperi]

Technically, 1 million degrees Celsius and 1 million degrees Kelvin are the same. Also true of Fahrenheit and #Rankine.

[@Meganjolie2133]

I just don't get it the scales where the start point of each one ?

[@programmingcafe7571]

megan jolie Celsius and farenhite (bad spelling) don't begin at absolute zero. kelvin begins at the absolute bottom temperature where there is no thermal energy remaining in matter

[@jmm1233]

much prefer celsious and kelvin for their metric qualities

[@Madmuli]

As does most of the world, except for a few... nah, I´m not gonna say it

[@victorselve8349]

Irrelevant, Everyday life, Equations and Cryo.

[@rockbore]

Heat isn't just the average kenetic energy of molecules. Heat travels at light speed through space. It's true that space in the solar is shrouded in a cloud of invisibly small particles. It is also true that thise molecules absorb that heat and convert it to velocity, but to assume that molecules are necessary for heat leaves the possibility that space must be absolute zero Kelvin. As you approach the sun, that view becomes increasingly clearly wrong. How can you express heat in terms of material kenetic energy without admitting cold space? Is space hot when heat is passing through it? Isn't it more practice to call space hot were you would burn travelling through that space?

[@DrewIsFail]

The coldest things can be is 0 kelvin, says the guy named kelvin. Clearly this is wrong, 0 drew is at least twice as cold.

[@BensChemVideos]

Good one

[@alisareteiwi7458]

You should be a teacher

[@Andrey-oz6qn]

И тут я понял, что ничего не понимаю.

[@b1lance561]

forgot the rankine scale

Kelvin Fahrenheit Celsius

[@ayka605]

thanks captain obvious

[@ayka605]

we saw the video

[@2canines]

As per usual the American measurement system makes the least sense. =P

[@amcproW]

fight me

[@jefflebowski918]

I don't care what the experts say, Fahrenheit is more precise than Celsius or Kelvin. There are 180 degrees between freezing and boiling with Fahrenheit. With Celsius and Kelvin there are only 100degrees. Also Fahrenheit is a linear scale while Celsius is exponential. I am cool with metric distance though(mm, cm, m).

[@programmingcafe7571]

Jeff Lebowski kelvin is more precise, it begins at absolute zero which is less confusing and it's boiling point is at about 300

[@mattyd2248]

shut the fuck up ahaha

[@victorselve8349]

How is Celsius exponential? Also you do realize that 1) you can just use more points after the decimal point? For Gods sake you can use ° mC if you so choose 2) for most applications giving more than one place after the decimal points is useless (simply beginning with the fact that in practice temperature is an inherently unstable quantity) 3) 100 is a power of 10

[@Grillar]

***** you do realise you can put decimals on everything?

[@williamhorn411]

Fractions are much easier to work with when working out a calculation.
