The temperature of an object is raised by 120°C. The resulting increase in its absolute temperature is?

A. 50K
B. 120 K
C. 200K
D. 393K

Correct Answer:

Option B = 120 K

Both the scales are related as a unit for a unit. One unit increase in the Kelvin scale is the same as a one-degree increase in the Celsius scale. The only difference between these two scales is the zero points of the thermometer.
