Q: Which of the following is a correct example of a simple (one-step) conversion factor problem?

Converting 100 cm to meters using $$1 \\ \mathrm{m} = 100 \\ \mathrm{cm}$$

Q: A hospital stores oxygen gas at 25°C. What is this temperature in Kelvin, and why is the Kelvin scale preferred in scientific calculations?

$$298.15 \\ \mathrm{K}$$; Kelvin is preferred because it starts at absolute zero, making calculations involving temperature and energy more accurate.
