Chemical Thermodynamics John Murrell Introduction
... A precise definition of temperature, and its measure by the kelvin scale, 0K = 273.15C (one cannot have a temperature below 0K), arises from the second law of thermodynamics, which we examine later. The kelvin scale also comes from the statistical theory developed by Boltzmann in which thermodynamic ...
