Gas thermometers are more sensitive than the liquid thermometers because the gases
-
- have large coefficient of expansion
- are lighter
- have low specific heat
- have high,specific heat
- have large coefficient of expansion
Correct Option: A
Gases are more sensitive to the temperature than liquids (such as mercury). That means gas expands more than the mercury for the same increase of temperature. Hence the gas thermometer is more sensitive than liquid (mercury) thermo-meter.
