Chapter 19, Problem 19.7OQ
What would happen if the glass of a thermometer expanded more on warming than did the liquid in the tube? (a) The thermometer would break, (b) It could be used only for temperatures below room temperature. (c) You would have to hold it with the bulb on top. (d) The scale on the thermometer is reversed so that higher temperature values would be found closer to the bulb, (e) The numbers would not be evenly spaced.
