A maximum thermometer typically contains Mercury, which expands and contracts with temperature changes, allowing for precise measurements of high temperatures. In contrast, a minimum thermometer usually contains alcohol (often colored for visibility), which contracts more than mercury and can accurately indicate low temperatures. The design of both thermometers allows for the liquids to remain in place at the maximum or minimum temperature recorded until manually reset.

What is the importance of thermometric liquids?
Thermometric liquid is the liquid found in the thermometer that help in the up and down movement of the temperature.
Which thermometer is used in refrigerators?
Refrigerators typically use a bimetallic coil thermometer or a digital thermometer to monitor and display the temperature inside the unit. These thermometers are designed to withstand the cold temperatures found in refrigerators and provide an accurate reading of the internal temperature.
What are 3 natural liquids?
Water, honey, and coconut water are three examples of natural liquids found in nature.
Where is most of the liquid in a thermometer?
Most of the liquid in a thermometer is typically found in the bulb at the bottom of the thermometer. This is where the temperature changes cause the liquid to expand or contract, moving up or down the tube to indicate the temperature.
What occurs when the plasma concentration of a substance exceeds tubular maximum?
The amount of substance that exceeds the tubular maximum will be found in the urine.
Two liquids most found in a glass thermometer?
mercury and alcohol
Is it a solid liquid or gas found in a thermometer?
Actually anything that won't freeze or boil at the operating range of the thermometer. The most common are mercury and alcohol.
What are the uses of six' thermometer?
Six's thermometer is a thermometer which can measure the maximum and minimum temperaturesreached over a period of time, usually during a day.
How can you find the time of minimum for a variable stars?
Some types of variable star vary very regularly, and their time of maximum and minimum can be found from data. Others are irregular and the only way to find the maximum and minimum is to keep observing them and measuring the brightness.
What is the importance of thermometric liquids?
Thermometric liquid is the liquid found in the thermometer that help in the up and down movement of the temperature.
What is found in a thermometer?
Mercury :)
How many red balls would be found on a pool table?
This depends upon the game being played. A minimum of 1 and a maximum of 3.
Why liquids diffuse much faster than solid?
The intermolecular force of attraction between the particles of solid is greater than liquid and due to this minimum space is found between the particles of solid. That's why liquids diffuse much faster than solids.
What liquid is found in a clinical thermometer?
The liquid in a clinical thermometer is often mercury. But there are thermometers that use a coloured alcohol.
What are the two most commonly found in liquid-in-glass thermometers?
The two most commonly found liquids in liquid-in-glass thermometers are mercury and alcohol. Mercury thermometers are used for high-temperature applications, while alcohol thermometers are used for lower temperatures due to their lower toxicity.
Can mercury and alcohol mixed to become a thermometer?
Mercury and alcohol are not the thermometers but the liquids found in the thermometer they have different properties that make them uniqe for example alcohol is safe while mercury is poisonous,alcohol does not expand uniformly but has great expansion while mercury expands uniformly and has low expansion,alcohol is cheap while mercury is expensive,alcohol wets the glass while mercury does not.so alcohol can not combine to form a thermometer simply because they are the liquids found in it and not the thermometer itself.
Why you can not use another liquid in a thermometer?
We cannot use other liquids in thermometer since it may not have a wide range of temperature for remaining in the liquid state. It may stick to the glass of the thermometer. It may be transparent. The liquid may not be sensitive to thermal expansion and may not have a uniform expansion with heat. The liquid may not be a good conductor of heat.The liquid may not be found in pure form. Hence mercury is the best liquid as a thermometric liquid.
