Answer 1

c)

Answer 2

Paper burns at 451 degree Fahrenheit (Ray Bradbury wrote a book involving burned books), so with simple algebra

F= 9/5(C) +32

451 = 9/5(C) + 32

C= 233

The answer is C) 233 degrees Celsius.

Answer 3

well its easy...u imagine putting the paper on ur electric kettle's metal body, and see does it burn? no it doesnt...u put it on the metal body because u dun wan it to be moist from the steam if u wanted to use the steam. so logically speaking, it has to be hotter than 100 celcius, which is boiling water's temperature...

Answer 4

It´s C  to me.

In 1966, there was a film directed by french François Truffaut, (his only english film), whose name is Farenheith 451, in which there was a team of book burners, and they said that was the "flash point" of paper, (aprox. 233 ºC.) See:
