Chapter 1, Problem 1.103CP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The effective temperature range of alcohol thermometer has to be stated in ${}^{\circ }F$.

Concept introduction:

• The conversional formula for temperature from ${}^{\circ }C$ into ${}^{\circ }F$ is,

$°F=1.8\times °C+32$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass of alcohol and mercury contained in a 1 mL thermometer has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

• The relationship between density, mass and volume of a liquid is,

$density(g/L)=\frac{mass(g)}{volume(L)}$
