Thermal Properties of Matter

Mercury thermometer can be used to measure temperature upto: (1992)
$260^\circ\text{C}$
$100^\circ\text{C}$
$360^\circ\text{C}$
$500^\circ\text{C}$

Solution:

The boiling point of mercury is approximately $356.7^\circ\text{C}$. Therefore, a standard mercury thermometer can measure temperatures up to around $360^\circ\text{C}$.
