Chapter 1, Problem 68P(choose chapter or problem)
Suppose that a new temperature scale has been devised on which the melting point of ethanol (-117.3°C) and the boiling point of ethanol (78.3°C) are taken as 0°S and 100°S, respectively, where S is the symbol for the new temperature scale. Derive an equation relating a, reading on this scale to a reading on the Celsius scale. What would this thermometer read at 25°C?

QUESTION:
Suppose that a new temperature scale has been devised on which the melting point of ethanol (-117.3°C) and the boiling point of ethanol (78.3°C) are taken as 0°S and 100°S, respectively, where S is the symbol for the new temperature scale. Derive an equation relating a, reading on this scale to a reading on the Celsius scale. What would this thermometer read at 25°C?
ANSWER:
Step 1 of 2
Here we have to derive an equation relating a, reading on this scale to a reading on the Celsius scale and what would this thermometer read at .
Given:
In this question it has been given that, the new temperature scale for the melting point and boiling point of ethanol has been taken as and
where S is the symbol for the new temperature scale
