Solution
The conversion from Kelvin to Celsius is done by subtracting 273.15 from the Kelvin temperature.
So, for tungsten with a melting point of 3683 K, the calculation would be:
3683 K - 273.15 = 3409.85 °C
Therefore, the closest answer to the exact result is 3410 °C.

A piece of tungsten of mass 50 g is placed over a flame for long time. The metal is then quickly transferred to a well-insulated aluminum calorimeter of mass 120 g containing 300 g of water at 22 °C. After some time the temperature of the water reaches a maximum value of 31 °C. You may use these values of specific heat capacity : water 4.2 × 103 J kg−1 K−1; tungsten 1.05 × 102 J kg−1 K−1; aluminium 9.45 × 102 J kg−1 K−1. What is the temperature of the flame?
