What material is used to make thermometers?

Thermometers are typically made using glass, as it is transparent and durable. Mercury or alcohol are commonly used as the liquid inside the glass tube to measure temperature. Some modern thermometers may use digital sensors and components instead of traditional materials.


How does a vacuum oven work to remove air and moisture from materials during the heating process?

A vacuum oven removes air and moisture from materials by creating a low-pressure environment inside the oven. This low pressure causes air and moisture to evaporate more easily from the materials as they are heated, resulting in a more thorough removal of these substances.

Can microwaves in a microwave oven pass through a material?

Yes, microwaves inside of a microwave oven do indeed pass through a material - for example - a glass casserole dish or other cooking vessel - to reach the food inside the vessel to begin the cooking process. The microwaves also pass through paper, plastic and similar materials - that is why one can cook with such materials in a microwave oven. Microwaves however do not pass through metal objects, but rather often cause arching in a microwave oven, and thus can not be used in a microwave oven. Properly working microwave ovens do not allow the microwaves to pass from inside the oven to the outside world.

What is the function of an oven thermostat and how does it regulate the temperature inside the oven?

An oven thermostat controls the temperature inside the oven by turning the heating element on and off to maintain a consistent temperature. It works by sensing the temperature inside the oven and sending signals to the heating element to adjust its output accordingly.
