K stands for kelvin, a unit of temperature in the International System of Units (SI). C stands for degrees Celsius, another unit of temperature. To convert a temperature in kelvins to degrees Celsius, you can use the formula:
C = K – 273.15
For example, to convert 300 K to degrees Celsius, you would do the following calculation:
C = 300 K – 273.15 = 26.85 degrees Celsius
Note that 0 K, or absolute zero, is the lowest possible temperature and is equivalent to -273.15 degrees Celsius.
