The sream poinr and rht ice point of a mercuty thermometer are marked as `80^0 and 20^0`. What will be the temperature in centigrade mercury scale when this thermometer reads `32^0`?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C
(##DCP_V03_C20_E01_054_S01##).
`(T_C)/(32 - 20) = (100)/(80 - 20) or T_C = 20^@ C`.
