You can insert a thermometer directly into a liquid, but not into a solid. You can fairly easily measure the surface temperature of a solid object, but that does not necessarily reflect the temperature inside.

How a thermometer is used?

A thermometer is used to measure air temperature, or the temperature within a solid or liquid.


The blank temperature at which solid changes to liquid?

The blank temperature at which solid changes to liquid is the melting point. This is the temperature at which a substance transitions from a solid to a liquid state.


A measure of how much of a solid will dissolve?

Solubility is a measure of how much of a solid will dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure. It is often expressed in terms of grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.

When the temperature at which a solid starts to change into liquid?

It is the melting point of the solid, the temperature of which depends on the solid.


What is melting or boiling point?

The melting point is the temperature at which a solid changes phases into a liquid. This is a result of the highly structured atoms of the solid, which have very little kinetic energy beginning to gain energy and dissociate. The boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid changes into a gas. This happens when the atoms/molecules of a liquid gain enough kinetic energy to escape the liquid and move into the gaseous state.
