Definition of Kelvin
Kelvin or K is the base unit of thermodynamic temperature in the International System of Units (SI). 0 K is an absolute “0,” which means the coldest possible temperature. A change of 1 Kelvin is the same as a change of 1 degree Celsius.
Definition of Celsius
Celsius (°C) is a temperature scale based on the freezing point (0°C) of the water and boiling point of the water (100°C). Celsius is the official temperature scale in most countries, including Canada, Europe, and many parts of Asia.
How to use this App
Open the converter, enter the value in °C, and tap the converter button. The temperature in kelvin will be displayed. The formula for converting °C to K is K = °C + 273.15. Zero kelvin is absolute zero, the coldest possible temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions
For Celsius to Kelvin conversion, add 273.15. For example, 20 degrees Celsius is equal to 293.15 Kelvin. Here is the formula: K = °C + 273.15. Where: K is the temperature in Kelvin. °C is the temperature in Celsius.
No, 1 degree Celsius or °C is not equal to 273 Kelvin or K. 0 degrees Celsius equals 273 Kelvin. Every degree Celsius is equal to 1-degree Kelvin, but the zero points are different.
0°C equals 273.15 K. The Kelvin scale is based on zero, meaning 0 K is the lowest possible temperature. 0 K is equal to -273.15 °C. So, 0°C is just 273.15 degrees above absolute zero.
K = °C + 273.15. Where K is the temperature in Kelvin, and °C is the temperature in Celsius. For example, to convert 20°C to Kelvin, you would do the following: K = 20°C + 273.15 = 293.15 K.
