Question

(01.07 HC)

A student collected the data shown in the table below during an experiment.


Liquid Characteristics
Liquid Characteristics
Boiling Point Freezing Point Color Expansion per Degree Change in Temperature
Mercury 357 °C −39 °C shiny silver gray relatively lower
Alcohol 78 °C −115 °C colorless relatively higher


Based on the data, which of the following conclusions can be made about the use of mercury and alcohol thermometers?
A mercury thermometer can measure the freezing point of a liquid that freezes at −80 °C.
An alcohol thermometer can measure the boiling point of a liquid that boils at 80 °C.
A mercury thermometer is better to measure very small changes in temperature.
An alcohol thermometer is better to measure the boiling points of colorless liquids.
