The most suitable thermometer for measuring boiling point of water is ?
Correct answer: A. Mercury Thermometer
- A. Mercury Thermometer
- B. Liquid crystal thermometer
- C. Bimetallic thermometer
- D. Alcohol thermometer
Explanation
A mercury thermometer is suitable for measuring water’s boiling point because mercury remains liquid well above 100°C and expands predictably. Alcohol boils near 78°C, so it cannot reliably measure the boiling point of water.
