    Study Notes

    Temperature and Thermometry

    • Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance.
    • The main purpose of a thermometer is to measure temperature quantitatively.

    Limitations of Sense of Touch

    • The sense of touch is not a reliable way to measure temperature because it can be influenced by various factors, such as the individual's sensitivity, the object's thermal conductivity, and the duration of contact.

    Types of Thermometers

    • A thermometer that uses liquid as its measuring substance is called a liquid-in-glass thermometer.

    Importance of Quantitative Measurement

    • It is important to measure temperature quantitatively because it allows for precise and accurate readings, enabling scientists to make informed decisions and comparisons.
