If you started with water -10 degrees celsius describe what a thermometer would show if you heat it until it is over 110 degrees celsius?

Then the thermometer will show over 110 degrees Celsius - if it doesn't break first.

What is the process of water changes into steam?
When you heat something it becomes lighter, if it started of as a solid it will eventually become light enough to be a liquid, and liquids become gases. When you heat water to 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) it becomes light enough to become vapour, at this point it also becomes lighter than air so it immediately rises. The reason you can see steam is that when it floats it cools from the air and forms droplets.
What is the melting po?
The Melting Pot is a concept used to describe the American culture when the immigrants from started to migrate into the states. It's also used now to describe the multiple cultures that in a way created a brand new one.
What it the term used to describe the energy needed to get a reaction started?
The energy needed to get a reaction started is called activation energy.
If you started at the prime meridian and traveled east how many degrees would you have to travel to return to it?
180° E or 180° W are used interchangeably, so it is 180°
What temperature does a Wildfire start at?
There is no set temperature that a wildfire starts at. The most recent fire in Santa Barbara, ca started when the weather was overcast and the temperature was below 70 degrees.
What does one degree of temperature mean?
The term is relative to the thermometer being used. On the Celsius or Centigrade scale, 1 degree is 1/100th of the range of temperature that water goes through from freezing to boiling; that is, water freezes at 0 degrees C and boils at 100 degrees, a difference of 100 degrees. The Fahrenheit scale, on the other hand, has water freezing at 32 degrees and boiling at 212 degrees. Since there is a difference of 180 degrees there, a Fahrenheit degree is much smaller than a Celsius degree. (And don't get me started on Kelvin!)
How was the celsius scale devised?
One of the problems with the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales is that they are not linear. We cannot say, for example, that a cup of water at 40 degrees C is twice as hot as one as 20 degrees, or that water at 20 degrees is twice as hot as water at 10 degrees. The absolute -- or Kelvin -- scale solves this problem, because it is linear.
How do you change a Mabis ear thermometer from Celsius to Fahrenheit?
while holding the front button click on the smaller button on the back. My dd was playing with it and changed it unwittingly, I tinkered with it until it started switched back and the is what worked,
I left my flax oil in the car under 40 degrees celsius did the pills spoil?
Under 40 degrees Celsius is a huge range in temperature. That said, flax oil can start to go bad very quickly when not refrigerated. It is possible the oil has started to become rancid and should be replaced.
If the water reaches a maximum temperature of 26.4 degrees celsius how many joules of heat were released by the pebble?
Go back and find out how much water there was, and what temperature it started out. Then come back with that information and we can answer your question.
What was the highest and lowest celsius temperature in Pittsburgh?
According to the National Weather Service, which has temperature information dating back to 1871, the coldest temperature in Pittsburgh was -22 degrees Fahrenheit, or -30 degrees Celsius. This was recorded on January 19, 1994, which was also Pittsburgh's coldest day on record (lowest mean temperature) with an average of 13 degrees below zero Fahrenheit.The highest temperature recorded in Pittsburgh was 103 degrees Fahrenheit, or 39.4444 degrees Celsius. This record high was reached on three days: July 10, 1881, August 6, 1918, and July 16, 1988. That latest date was also the last day of the longest heat wave in Pittsburgh history, a 13-day span that started on the Fourth of July, during which the high was never lower than 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Does frozen milk thaw faster than frozen water?
In general, water with stuff dissolved in it has a lower freezing temperature than pure water. Milk is just water with stuff (fats, sugars, proteins) dissolved in it so it's freezing temperature should be lower than 0 degrees Celsius (the freezing temperature of water).Therefore, if you started with both frozen milk and frozen water at say -10 degrees Celsius and started slowly heating them both, the frozen milk will start thawing (melting) before the frozen water.
What was in the first thermometer?
It was mercury but when they found out they were poisonous when broken they started to use it less often, but it is still sold., but not very much
What is 11 degrees from a angle?
x - 11 degrees, where x is the measure of the angle you started with.
What is the answer of temperature rise of 14 degrees integers?
The answer is t + 14 degrees where t is the temperature that you started with.
Tool used to measure the temperature?
Whilst a thermometer may give an 'estimated' readout of which can be right within a few percent of the actual value, this is not very accurate at all. There are of course several different types of thermometers. Some made with quicksilver. Others made with alcohol. With the development of transistors, we started to develop electronic thermometers of which can work in many different ways. they can measure infrared radiation. they can measure intensity and spectrum of light. they can measure with probes of various metals. The art of measuring temperature is a difficult one. Most thermometers only work accurately within a short range. You would for instance not use a thermometer filled with quicksilver or alcohol in order to measure the temperature in a pot of molten lead! First you need to narrow down the field, then you can begin with the right (mostly costly) thermometer for the task. A piece of copper wire can be used in order to measure temperature between -200 and + 150 degrees Celsius. We know that the resistance in copper changes with a certain percentage per degree Celsius. With a bit of calculations we will be able to calculate the temperature to almost perfection if we only know the exact dimensions of the copper wire used. Whilst our best mathematical efforts show possibilities, we still have to be sure that we measure the resistance to a very high degree of perfection too, but this is another subject.
