The numbers are where they are because the person who made the thermometer scale decided which numbers go where.
7 cant go in to 120, yet it can go in to 119!
120 and 7 will go into 120
Yes, 5 x 24 = 120
120 ÷ 6 = 20
0 degrees

A mercury thermometer can go down to -30 deg C
The water has to be 80 degrees to start a hurricane.
No, because candy and meat thermometers are not capable of measuring ambient temperature, they must have contact with the object whose temperature it is gauging You can purchase an oven thermometer relatively cheaply at many discount retailers or cooking specialty stores.
A rat terrier's normal temperature is 101 to 102.5 degrees Fahrenheit (38.3 to 39.2 degrees Celsius). To take your dog's temperature, you'll need a rectal thermometer. Put some petroleum jelly on the bulb of the thermometer. Ask someone to hold your dog's head while you lift his tail and insert the thermometer about an inch or so into the rectum. Do not let go of the thermometer. Hold it in until the temperature is read (about 3 minutes for a mercury thermometer), and then remove gently.
Heat causes mercury in the thermometer to expand, where as when it is cooled, it contracts.

Traditional thermometers normally cover 0 to 110 degrees Celsius. Electronic ones can go below and above this by a large amount; some custom-designed models can reach absolute zero, while others go into the thousands of degrees.
As the liquid in the thermometer is heated it expands, and the only way the expanding liquid can go is upward. As the liquid in the thermometer cools, it will contract, and the liquid will fall back down into the resevoir, causing the column of liquid to move downward.
Because they don't go that high. Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius. Body temperature is 37 degrees Celsius, so there's no need for a clinical thermometer to cover a range much higher than expected for body temperature; they might need to go up to say 45 tops (and if someone has a body temperature of 45 degrees Celcius, they're either dead or dying).
Nope. It can only go to 99 degrees in Buffalo.
