it expands at constant rate and has got high boiling point.
Mercury gives you AIDS
Advantages of using alcohol in a thermometer include being less toxic than mercury, having a lower freezing point, and a wider temperature range. However, disadvantages include having a lower boiling point than mercury, being more flammable, and having a lower density which can affect accuracy.
Using a thermometer we can measure the temperature.
If using a mercury thermometer - about a minute. A digital thermometer - a few seconds.
Mercury in a Mercury thermometer is typically silver in color.
Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the mercury thermometer. Ferdinand II invented a thermometer using alcohol but it was very inaccurate.
It has a reaction to temperature, so it'd be perfect for measuring it!
it can be easily seen it gets hot quickly it expands fast.. this is the advantage of mercury in thermometers..
u don't have to flick the thermometer to reset the temperature reading when you use an alcohol based thermometer (unlike a mercury thermometer where you have to flick and flick and flick flick flick that thermometer for the mercury to be reset so that you can make an accurate reading) a disadvantage is that the alcohol thermometer is slightly less acurate The biggest advantage is that alcohol is not nearly as toxic as mercury, so that if the thermometer breaks, you won't be poisoned.
Yes, if a mercury thermometer breaks, the mercury can vaporize and be inhaled, which can be harmful to your health. It is important to handle and dispose of a broken mercury thermometer properly to avoid exposure to mercury.
One disadvantage of using a data logger instead of a mercury thermometer is the potential for technical malfunctions or errors in data recording. Data loggers may also require more complex setup and calibration compared to a simple mercury thermometer. Additionally, data loggers may be more expensive upfront than a traditional mercury thermometer.
A mercury thermometer is used to measure temperature.
