Not quite; This is what the first source said about how a thermometer works;
This liquid is sometimes colored alcohol but can also be a metallic liquid called Mercury. Both mercury and alcohol grow bigger when heated and smaller when cooled. Inside the glass tube of a thermometer, the liquid has no place to go but up when the temperature is hot and down when the temperature is cold.
In other words, the thermometer goes up or down due to the expansion of the alcohol or mercury due to the heat.
After reviewing the second source, you will see that the columns go up and down due to the atmospheric pressure. If it goes up and down due to atmospheric pressure it is a manometer. A manometer does not work if it is not exposed to the atmosphere. A thermometer is sealed off to the outside.
This is another reason why a thermometer is different from a manometer.
What else can I help you with?
An instrument used to measure the pressure of gases in closed containers is a?
Manometer
What happen when mercury used in inverted manometer?
When mercury is used a manometer fluid and the manometer tube is inverted it will measure the small pressure difference in liquids. This is a tool used by scientists.
What is platinum thermometer?
A platinum thermometer is a type of resistance thermometer that uses a platinum element as the temperature-sensing material. Platinum is often chosen for its high accuracy and stability over a wide range of temperatures, making platinum thermometers suitable for precision temperature measurement applications.
What is the mercury inside a thermometer?
usually a type of alcohol now
What property is measure by a barometer and a manometer?
A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, while a manometer measures the pressure of gases or liquids in a closed system.
Types of manometer?
the most common type of manometer are u-tube type,inclined and the cistern type of manometer
What is the Procedure of well type manometer?
A manometer is used to measure pressure. A well-type manometer measures a singular height of pressure and is normally highly accurate.
What are the instruments use to measure?
Examples: thermometer, pluviometer, wind vane, anemometer, solarimeter, manometer etc.
What are the instruments used to measure climate?
Examples: thermometer, pluviometer, wind vane, anemometer, solarimeter, manometer etc.
What unit of measurement does a manometer use?
A manometer measures pressure. The units depend on the type of manometer and how it's calibrated. Units include psi, barr, Torr, atm, pascals, and kilopascals.
What are the types of manometer?
simple manometer differential manometer inclined manometer
What is a two liquid well type manometer?
What is a two liquid well type manometer is one of the three main types of manometers. This type is best applied to reading scales that are properly calibrated and in the right units.

How do you check grill temperature of split ac?
Temperature major through a thermometer, one is contact type thermometer another one non contact type.Non contact type thermometer known as laser thermometer. With non contact type thermometer or leaser thermometer you will read out temperature from a particular long distance without contact the particular point which temperature want to know.Contact type thermometers are glass type thermometers, analogue or digital read out type. Digital thermometer and analogue dial read out type thermometer have a sensor and that sensors must be to touch hot or cold point to read the temperature.Best use of contact type thermometer is uses full in a closed area. To know grill temperature of a slip Air Condition best use nonContact thermometer to read exact temperature.
How does gas thermometer functioning?
A gas thermometer measures temperature by the variation in volume or pressure of a gas.One common apparatus is a constant volume thermometer. It consists of a bulb connected by a capillary tube to a manometer. The bulb is filled with a gas such that the volume of the gas in the bulb remains constant. The volume is related to temperature by k, known as Charles's Law . The pressure of the gas in the bulb can be obtained by measuring the level difference in the two arms of the manometer. Gas thermometers are often used to calibrate other thermometers.
How do you set up manometer?
To set up a manometer, first ensure that it is securely mounted in a vertical position. Fill the manometer with a fluid, typically mercury or water, making sure there are no air bubbles. Connect the manometer to the system you want to measure the pressure of, and then observe the height difference of the fluid levels in the manometer to determine the pressure.
Why would it be necessary to attech a manometer to the hypsometer?
A manometer is a device that measures fluid pressure. A hypsometer is an instrument that measures height or elevation. One way to measure elevation is by using atmospheric pressure, which decreases with altitude. A hypsometer that uses this principle is called a boiling point apparatus or a pressure hypsometer. It consists of a thermometer and a vessel in which water is boiled. The boiling point of water depends on the atmospheric pressure, so by measuring the temperature of the boiling water, the pressure can be inferred and then converted to elevation. A manometer can be attached to the hypsometer to measure the pressure of the steam inside the vessel directly, without relying on the thermometer. This can improve the accuracy and reliability of the elevation measurement, especially if the thermometer is not calibrated or affected by other factors. A manometer with only one side open to the atmosphere is an ideal device for measuring gauge pressures, which are relative to the atmospheric pressure. The gauge pressure is p g = hρg and is found by measuring h, the height difference of the fluid columns in the U-shaped tube of the manometer. By knowing the gauge pressure and the atmospheric pressure, the absolute pressure inside the vessel can be calculated and then used to determine the elevation.
