Question

A thermometric thermometer reads 3.2 microvolts at the triple point of water. Determine it's reading when placed in a lecture theater of 27°c

Answer 1

The triple point of pure water is $0.01^0C$ and corresponds to 3.2 microvolts.

$27^0C$ corresponds to $\frac{27}{0.01} \times 3.2= 8640 microvolts$
