A student is conducting an experiment to determine how cold temperatures affect the growth of tadpoles in a tank of water. Which instrument would give the most accurate measurement of water temperature?
a calibrated bulb thermometer that has a readout from 15 C to 25 C
a calibrated digital thermometer that has a readout from 50 C to 250 C
an uncalibrated bulb thermometer that has a readout from 0 C to 100 C
an uncalibrated digital thermometer that has a readout from 10 C to 100 C
A student is conducting an experiment to determine how cold temperatures affect the growth of tadpoles in a tank of water. An uncalibrated bulb thermometer that has a readout from 0 C to 100 C would give the most accurate measurement of water temperature. It is the only one from the list which can read cold temperatures.
