List five disadvantage of using alcohol as thermometric liquid |
|
Answer» tion:1) It has a high FREEZING point therefore it cannot be used in places where the temperature GETS very low. 2) Alcohol expands uniformly. -It has a low freezing point (-115 degreecentigrade) therefore it is very suitable for place where the temperature gets very low. 3) It needs to be DYED, since it's colourless.4) It expands uniformly (LINEAR expansion) and responds quickly to temperature changes, hence is sensitive.5) It is a good conductor of heat and therefore the whole LIQUID reaches the temperature of the surroundings quickly. |
