To determine which liquid is preferable to be used as a barometric liquid when the variation in pressure is very minute, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Barometers**: A barometer is an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. It typically consists of a liquid column that rises or falls in response to changes in pressure. 2. **Comparing Densities**: We have two liquids, A and B. The problem states that the density of liquid A is greater than that of liquid B (Density of A > Density of B). ...
