How could you calibrate a thermometer which had no scale marked?

Put it in a pot of water. Boil the water. Then mark the spot on the thermometer at which the water boils - the spot you marked will be 100 degrees celsius. Then put it in water in the freezer and mark it. The point at which the water freezes will be 0 degrees celsius. Then measure the length between 0 and 100 and make 9 equal marks for each 10 degrees and your thermometer is calibrated.


What is a dual probe thermometer?

this is a thermometer that can work twice as much as a normal thermometer or a thermometer that can check the temperature of two things at the same time


What is the difference between a chocolate thermometer and a regular thermometer?

A chocolate thermometer and a regular thermometer differ from each other by its size and sturdiness. The chocolate thermometer are much bigger than the regular thermometer so that it can withstand the extreme heat. The normal thermometer can withstand less heat than the other one.


How can you use the words inquiry and thermometer in one sentence?

I did not understand the nurse's inquiry as to what I had done with the thermometer. Will an inquiry be necessary to find that thermometer? A silent thermometer has no inquiry.

How do you calibrate a freezer thermometer?

To calibrate a freezer thermometer, you will need a glass of ice water. Place the thermometer in the ice water for a few minutes, making sure it does not touch the sides or bottom of the glass. The thermometer should read 32°F (0°C) in the ice water. If it does not, adjust the calibration nut or dial on the thermometer until it reads the correct temperature.


What might happened to the thermometer if you put in boiling water after taken out of freezer?

There will be a sudden change in temperature and it is likely that the thermometer may even break.


Why does a thermometer break when its put into the freezer?

When a thermometer is put into the freezer, the sudden change in temperature causes the glass to contract rapidly, which can lead to the glass cracking or shattering. Glass is not very flexible, and extreme temperature changes can cause it to break.


What might happen to the thermometer if you put it in boiling water after taken out from the freezer?

it would probably crack


Why does the bulb of the thermometer break in the freezer?

The bulb of the thermometer contains liquid that expands when frozen, causing it to break under pressure. The glass cannot withstand the expansion of the liquid inside when exposed to extreme cold temperatures in the freezer, leading to breakage.


How do you tell how hot or cold something is?

use a thermometer.We can feel how hot or cold something is. However, sometimes things are just too hot or cold for us to feel safely. At other times we need to know exactly how hot or cold something is. When we need to measure temperature correctly we need to use an instrument called a thermometer. This measures temperature in degrees Celsius [sometimes called centigrade] or degrees Fahrenheit. There are different types of thermometers for different situations. A medical thermometer, for example, needs to be very accurate. It measures in fractions of degrees. When we are ill, even tiny changes in temperature are important. Some thermometers use a liquid that moves up a very fine glass tube. Most room thermometers, and outdoor thermometers are like this. The liquid is either mercury [ which is poisonous] or coloured alcohol. As liquids get warmer they expand [get bigger], and move up the tube. Water expands too, but not as much as alcohol and mercury. Thermometers that might be used by small children are not made of glass. They use a digital display which lights up the temperature. Inside the displays are chemicals that change colour according to the temperature.

What would the temperature be in a freezer that is turned down to low?

The temperature in a freezer that is set to low can vary, but it is typically around 0 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit (-18 to -12 degrees Celsius). It is important to monitor the temperature with a thermometer to ensure it stays at a safe level for storing food.


Tempereture of frozen food in frezer?

Your freezer should temperature should be at least 0 degrees F. This is the guideline for how long a particular food can be in the freezer without suffering frost damage. A temperature of -10 F will extend the food's freezer life. I THINK it's something like double the freezer life for a particular food. According to the FDA as long as the food remains frozen, it is safe to use although the quality deteriorates over time. Home this helps! BTW be sure to have a thermometer in your freezer.

What is the correct temperatures for the freezer and normal areas in a domestic refridgerator?

Using a thermometer for the domestic freezer it should read between 32 and 34 degrees Fahrenheit. The refrigerator should be 40 - 42 degrees Fahrenheit. Store meat and produce and Dairy on the lowest shelves and drawers (coldest).


What are the types of thermometer?

Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin.
