Is there air in a glass thermometer?
Yes, above the mercury or the other liquid.
How a liquid in glass thermometer works?
the heat makes it expand you see
What is the sSensor in Mercury-in-glass thermometer?
The sensor is just the mercury, a liquid metal.
Is the external bulb of a thermometer also made of mercury?
The red liquid in a thermometer is Mercury, which is usually encased in a glass tube
What are the materials used for a Galileo thermometer?
A Galileo thermometer is a thermometer made of a sealed glass cylinder containing a clear liquid and a series of objects whose densities are such that they rise or fall as the temperature changes.
What makes a liquid-in-glass thermometer sensitive to a small change of temperature?
a bulb with a thin glass wall
What is liquid-in-glass thermometer?
what do they use for the liquid in glass ball thermometer
What makes a liquid in glass thermometer sensitive to a small changes in temperature?
A liquid in glass thermometer is sensitive to small changes in temperature due to the thermal expansion of the liquid contained inside the glass tube. As the temperature increases, the liquid expands, causing it to rise up the calibrated scale of the thermometer. Conversely, as the temperature decreases, the liquid contracts, causing it to subside on the scale. This expansion and contraction of the liquid is highly responsive to even slight temperature variations, making it sensitive to small changes in temperature.
Which device has a liquid in glass components?
thermometer
Why are the thermometers called liquid in glass thermometers?
A so-called "glass" thermometer has a small bore-hole in the center of the glass that has some liquid in it. It's the activity of the liquid in the narrow hole that makes the thermometer a thermometer.
Which device has liquid in glass components?
thermometer
What Kind of thermometer should you use for measuring liquids?
A thermometer can be used to measure the temperature of a liquid. There are digital devices that don't need to come into contact to register the temperature.
What are the materials in a thermometer?
For a classic thermometer: glass and mercury, colored ethanol or another liquid.
What are the types of thermometer?
Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.
Why you can not use another liquid in a thermometer?
We cannot use other liquids in thermometer since it may not have a wide range of temperature for remaining in the liquid state. It may stick to the glass of the thermometer. It may be transparent. The liquid may not be sensitive to thermal expansion and may not have a uniform expansion with heat. The liquid may not be a good conductor of heat.The liquid may not be found in pure form. Hence mercury is the best liquid as a thermometric liquid.
How does a liquid in a glass thermometer?

How does a glass thermometer works?
As the liquid in the thermometer is heated it expands, and the only way the expanding liquid can go is upward. As the liquid in the thermometer cools, it will contract, and the liquid will fall back down into the resevoir, causing the column of liquid to move downward.
