    Which metal is used in thermometer?

    Mercury is the only metal found in the liquid state. It is largely used in thermometers to measure the temperature. But mercury is a very dangersous precautions you would take while handling the equipment containing mercury ?

    A manometer reads the pressure of a gas in an exclosure as shown in fig.10.25(a) When a pump removes some of the gas, the manometer reads as in fig.10.25(b) the liquid used in the manometer is mercury and the atmospheric pressure is 76cm of mercury. Give the absolute and gauge pressure of the gas in the exclosure for cases (a) and (b) in units of cm of mercury. How would the levels change in case (b) If 13.6 cm of water (immiscible with mercury) are poured into the right limb of the manometer? (ignore the small change in the volume of the gas).
