Assessment: JAMB UTME - Physics - 2022 Subject: Physics

Question 1 Report

Water is not a good thermometric liquid because it?
Answer Details
Water is not a good thermometric liquid because it expands unevenly between 0 ºC and 4 ºC. This means that its volume changes at a different rate for different temperature changes within this range. This makes it difficult to accurately measure temperature changes using water as the thermometric liquid. In contrast, good thermometric liquids have a more uniform expansion rate over a range of temperatures, making it easier to accurately measure temperature changes.
