Answer

$0.23\frac{K}{s}$

Work Step by Step

We know that $\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta t}=\frac{45^{\circ}F-(-4.0^{\circ}F)}{2.0 min}$ $\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta t}=24.5\frac{F^{\circ}}{min}$ Now we can convert this rate of change of temperature in Kelvin as $(24.5\frac{F^{\circ}}{min})(\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{1K}{1.8}F^{\circ})=0.23\frac{K}{s}$
