100 Celsius to Kelvin
100 °C = 373.15 K
100 degrees Celsius equals 373.15 kelvins.
How to convert 100 °C to K
Use the formula K = °C + 273.15:
K = 100 + 273.15K = 373.15
So 100 °C = 373.15 K.
Rounded values and quick estimate
- Rounded to a whole number: 373 K
- Rounded to one decimal place: 373.2 K
This conversion is exact, so there is no need to estimate: just add or subtract 273.15.
100 Celsius in other units
This is the boiling point of water at sea level (standard atmospheric pressure), defined as 212 °F. At higher altitudes water boils at a lower temperature.
100 °C is around the boiling point of water (100 °C / 212 °F at sea level), relevant for boiling, steaming and pressure cooking.

About celsius and kelvin
The Celsius scale sets the freezing point of water at 0 °C and its boiling point at 100 °C (at sea level). It is used for everyday temperatures in almost every country.
The kelvin is the SI unit of temperature. It starts at absolute zero (0 K = −273.15 °C) and uses degrees the same size as Celsius, so it never goes negative.
