Alcohol in a thermometer rises whenever the temperature of its surrounding increases. As the temperature increases, the heat causes the alcohol to expand ever so slightly, which shows up as an increase of height of the alcohol in the tube of the thermometer.

What is a wrongly calibrated instrument?

A wrongly calibrated instrument is one that shows the wrong measurement. For example, alcohol in a thermometer rises with temperature; but the exact marks for 0 degrees, 10 degrees, ... 100 degrees (for example) may be wrongly placed, so that, when the temperature really is 30 degrees, the thermometer only shows 28 degrees (for example). Any instrument will have some error of this type, but the idea of calibration is to keep this kind of error reasonably small.A wrongly calibrated instrument is one that shows the wrong measurement.

Why is lab thermometer can't be used as clinical and vice - varsa?

A clinical thermometer typically shows a maximum reading while a lab thermometer typically shows the temperature right now. When you take a thermometer out of a patients mouth (or other place that you are measuring the temperature) you most often want the maximum temperature to keep showing until you reset the instrument. When using a lab oratory thermometer you want the instrument to react as quickly as possible so that changes (up and down) can be noticed and recorded.
