What physical property is being used when using a clinical thermometer to measure temperature?
Expansion of a fluid, usually Mercury but alcohol (usually red colored) is used.
Expansion of a metal (solid) in a bimetallic strip
Change in electrical resistance - used in sensors
Thermoelectric effect - ( thermocouples)
Quartz crystal oscillator (Quartz crystal frequency varies slightly with temperature)
Thermochromic liquid crystal - (in the strips that show different colors)
What else can I help you with?
Is state of matter at room temperature a chemical or physical property?
The state of matter is a physical property at any temperature.
Is it a chemical change physical change chemical property or physical property when hydrogen chloride is a gas at room temperature.?
The observation that hydrogen chloride is a gas at room temperature is a PHYSICAL property.
Which property of an objects particles is temperature?
Temperature is a physical property measured in Kelvin degrees or Celsius degrees.
Is water at room temperature a physical property?
Yes it is. Properties like Boiling and melting points are physical properties.
Zinc is a solid at room temperature, is this Physical or chemical property?
This is chemical property
What property is for a thermometer?
The property measured by a thermometer is temperature. Thermometers can detect and display temperature readings in various units such as Celsius or Fahrenheit.
How does a temomether work?
A thermometer works by measuring temperature through a physical property that changes with temperature, such as the expansion of a liquid (mercury or alcohol) or a metal coil. When the temperature changes, the property changes, leading to a corresponding movement of the indicator on the thermometer scale. This allows us to read and interpret the temperature accurately.
Why does the mercury in the thermometer go up when the temperature is high?
In a mercury thermometer, the mercury expands when it is heated, causing it to rise in the thermometer's narrow tube. This increase in volume is a physical property of mercury known as thermal expansion. The height of the mercury column in the thermometer is then used to measure the temperature.
Is temperature a physical property or a chemical property?
The state of matter is a physical property.
Is state of matter at room temperature a chemical or physical property?
The state of matter is a physical property at any temperature.
Is a solid at room temperature a physical property?
physical property because it is unchanging.
What is the property of a thermometer measure?
A thermometer measures temperature, which is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance. Temperature can be measured in different scales such as Celsius, Fahrenheit, or Kelvin.
How you observe physical properties?
.... by measurement with an device designed for one particular property: balance for mass, thermometer for temperature, ruler for length, spectrophotometer for color, photometer for light, etc.
What are thermal properties?
when objects are heated or cooled, their temperatures change, along with some of their properties, these properties are known as Thermometric Properties. Examples include: when objects are heated, they expand, when they are cooled, they shrink. Another is, if an object is heated, its' gaseos pressure will increase and will decrease when object is cooled.
What is the difference between a thermometer and a thermocouple?
A thermometer measures temperature using a temperature-dependent physical property, such as liquid expansion or electrical resistance. A thermocouple, on the other hand, generates a voltage proportional to the temperature difference between its two junctions, based on the Seebeck effect. Thermocouples are typically used in more extreme temperature environments compared to thermometers.
Is it a chemical change physical change chemical property or physical property when hydrogen chloride is a gas at room temperature.?
The observation that hydrogen chloride is a gas at room temperature is a PHYSICAL property.
A change in a physical property of another substance is a one physical change chemical change physical property?
It is a change of a physical property - for example the variation of temperature.
