1. Ice point: The temperature at which pure water freezes at one standard atmospheric pressure is called as ice point or freezing point.

2. Steam point: The temperature at which pure water boils into steam or steam changes to liquid water at one standard atmospheric pressure is called as steam point or boiling point.

The length of a mercury column in a mercuryin-glass thermometer is 25 mm at the ice point and 180 mm at the steam point.

Here the thermometric property P is the length of the mercury column. Using equation, T = \(\frac{100(P_T-P_1)}{(P_2-P_1)}\) For P1 = 25 mm, P2 = 180 mm, PT = 60 mm T = \(\frac{100(60-25)}{(180-25)}\) = 22.58 °C The temperature corresponding to the length of...

A resistance thermometer has resistance 95.2 Ω at the ice point and 138.6 Ω at the steam point. What resistance would be obtained

Here the thermometric property P is the resistance. If R is the resistance at 27 °C, Using equation, T = \(\frac{100(P_T-P_1)}{(P_T-P_1)}\) For T = 27 °C, P1 = 95.2 Ω, P2 = 138.6 Ω . ∴ 27 = \(\frac{100(R-95.2)}{(138.6-95.2)}\) ∴...

The pressure reading in a thermometer at steam point is 1.367 × 10^3 Pa. What is pressure reading at triple point knowing the linear relationship

Given: P = 1.367 × 103 Pa at steam point (T) i.e., at 273.15 + 100 = 373.15 K. Linear relationship between temperature and pressure means that. P ∝ T ⇒ P1T1 = P2T2 To find:...

A piece of ice falls from a height h so that it melts completely. Only one — quarter of the heat produced is absorbed by the ice and all energy

(A) 136 km When the piece of ice falls from the height h, it possesses potential energy, mgh. This P.E. is converted to heat energy. ∴ Q = mgh But only \(\frac{1^{th}}{4}\) of it is absorbed...
