The Celsius temperature scale
is a common System
Internationale (SI)
temperature scale (the official
scale is Kelvin). The Celsius
scale is based on a derived
unit defined by assigning the
temperatures of 0°C and
100°C to the freezing and
boiling points of water,
respectively, at 1 atm
pressure.

Thermometer

Alcohol / liquid A thermometer is Digital


thermometer an instrument that Thermometer
Liquid expands at a regular, measures A digital thermometer is the
measureable rate when it is temperature. most accurate and quickest
heated. For this reason, a way to take a temperature. 
common form of thermometer
contains a liquid in a narrow
glass tube.
How to read Alcohol Thermometer?
The tube is graded with several marks
along the length of the tube. Each mark
is used to read the temperature. When
the meniscus of the liquid moves up due
to expansion of the liquid, the position
of the meniscus shows the temperature
against an inscribed scale. To read the
mark against the meniscus more clearly
and without any strain on naked eyes,
the liquid is made more visible by the
addition of a red or blue dye and the
reading scale is given a background by
enameling it with yellow or white.
How to read Digital Thermometer?
1. Place the thermometer .
2. Hold the thermometer in the same spot
for about 40 seconds.
3. Readings will continue to increase and
the F (or C) symbol will flash during
measurement.
4. Usually, the thermometer will make a
beeping noise when the final reading
is done (usually about 30 seconds). If
you are keeping track, record the
temperature and the time.
5. Rinse thermometer in cold water,
clean it with alcohol and rinse again.
