Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To convert $166.17 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { F }$ to Celsius, use the formula $ \mathrm { C } = \frac { 5 } { 9 } (\mathrm { F } - 32) $. Substituting $166.17$ for $F$, we get $ \mathrm { C } = \frac { 5 } { 9 } (166.17 - 32) = 74.54 ^ { \circ }$. Therefore, the reaction occurs at $C \geq 74.54 ^ { \circ }$.
