Describe how a thermometer uses the thermal expansion of a material to measure temperature?

A thermometer is a device that is used to gauge temperature. Mercury style thermometers used the elemental liquid in a tube of measured diameter and height. The higher the temperature, the higher the observed mercury level is. Thus, the height of the mercury uses marking to indicate which air temperature corresponds to the given height of its liquid expansion.
