Fahrenheit, Celsius or Centigrade, Kelvin, Rankine, Reaumur, and others.
Fahrenheit scale says that 32o is the freezing point of water at 14 psi of air.
Celsius/Centigrade, says that the freezing point of water is 0oat 14psi.
Kelvin says that 0o is absolute zero; meaning that nothing can get colder than this: in Fahrenheit scale this temp. is 459o below zero.
Most thermometers have both Fahrenheit and Celsius scales on them.
Fahrenheit is marked with 'F' and Celsius is marked with 'C'.
Also I might mention that Celsius is part of the metric system, and is used in most countries is the world. However, Fahrenheit is part of the English system, and is used still in the United States.
What else can I help you with?
Is the Fahrenheit thermometer scale proportional to the Celsius thermometer scale?
There is nothing special about either scale
What is the Least count of thermometer scale?
The least count of a thermometer scale is the smallest temperature difference that can be measured by the scale. It is typically based on the precision of the markings on the scale, which can vary depending on the design and calibration of the thermometer.
What is a dual-scale thermometer?

What are the numbers on a thermometer called?
Temperature is shown in thermometer is shown on a scale. So, we can call the numbers as simply: scale-readings.
Does a clinical thermometer have a linear scale?
Yes, a clinical thermometer typically has a linear scale. This means that the temperature readings on the thermometer increase or decrease in a consistent and straight line fashion as the temperature changes.
Which thermometer scale equals the Celsius scale?
The Celsius scale, of course. Though it is also known as the centigrade scale.
What Thermometer measure temperature with scale?
celsius
Why are the numbers where they are on a thermometer?
The numbers are where they are because the person who made the thermometer scale decided which numbers go where.
List four types of temperature scales?
celsius scale fahrenheit scale ranking scale kelvin thermometer scale
Who standardized the scale for the thermometer in 1714?
andeers celsius
What is the purpose of a dual scale thermometer?
Some people want to measure temperature in deg C while others prefer deg F. A dual scale thermometer will allow people to do what they prefer, but using only one thermometer.
How do you mark a temperature scale on a thermometer?
To mark a temperature scale on a thermometer, you would need to calibrate it by comparing it to a known reference temperature. Then, you can make corresponding marks at various points on the thermometer scale to indicate different temperature readings. It's important to ensure accuracy and consistency during this process.
