Athermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. what would cause the liquid in the thermometer to rise?

the molecules in the water move closer together.

the molecules in the thermometer’s liquid spread apart.

the kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

the kinetic energy of the thermometer’s liquid molecules decreases

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we use a thermometer to measure the temperature of water then heat from the water will lead to represent an increase in the thermometer reading.

This is because heat or warmth from the water will get transferred to the thermometer as a result, the liquid in the thermometer will also get warm.

Therefore, this warmth will increase kinetic energy of the molecules of liquid in the thermometer. Hence, the liquid will spread.

Thus, we can conclude that the liquid in the thermometer to rise because  molecules in the thermometer’s liquid spread apart.

your answer is a. the enthalpy of formation for a pure element in its standard state is always positive.

each chemical family is represented as a group or column on the periodic table. based on chemical properties, there are 6 types of chemical families. group 1 represents alkali metals, group 2 represents alkaline earth metals, groups 3 to 12 represent transition metals, groups 13 to 16 represent non-metals and other metals, group 17 represents halogens and group 18 represents noble gases.
