Answer: The melting point of his substance in celsius is 150°C.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Temperature in Fahrenheit = 302° F

We need to convert the temperature into Celsius.

As we know the relation between Fahrenheit and Celsius:


C=(5)/(9)(F-32}\\\\C=(5)/(9)(302-32)\\\\C=(5)/(9)* 270\\\\C=5* 30\\\\C=150^\circ

Hence, The melting point of his substance in celsius is 150°C.
