Water is not a good thermometric liquid because it?
expands unevenly between 0 ºC and 4 ºC
maintains fixed density
has low freezing point
wets glass
ব্যাখ্যা
Water is most anomalous at low temperatures, with a remarkable density maximum at 4°C.
water is not used as a thermometric liquid because it has low thermal expansivity, high specific capacity, high vapor pressure and wets glass.
