A change of 100 in Centigrade scale corresponds to 180 F will change in Fahrenheit scale.
The temperature at which both the Fahrenheit and Centigrade scales have the same value is -400
The SI unit of temperature is Kelvin
Gas thermometers are more sensitive than the liquid thermometers because the gases have low specific heat.
When water is heated from 00 C to 100 C its volume first decreases and then increases.
The absolute zero is a temperature at which Molecular motion in a gas would cease.
Low temperatures (cryogenies) find application in space travel, surgery and magnetic levitation
A liquid initially contracts when cooled down to 40 C but on further cooling down to 00 C, it expands. The liquid is Water.
A white and smooth surface is Bad absorber and Good reflector of Heat.
The change of a solid into vapour directly is called sublimation.
