Kelvin is the absolute scale. There is no lower temperature than 0K, while there is lower temperature than 0C. Also xC=(x+273)K. It is like the same scale brought 273 degrees to the left. 2C is NOT 2 times higher than 1C, but 2K is 2 times higher than 1K. So as said, KELVIN IS THE ABSOLUTE SCALE AND NOT CELSIUS!!!!!!!
