`T' = V/ V-V' xx T_0'`
`T_0 =273K`
`V = 1800 cc`
`V' =200cc`
`T' =1800/1600 xx 273`
`307.125~~307`

In a constant volume gas thermometer, the pressure of the working gas is measured by the difference in the levels of mercury in the two arms of a U-tube connected to the gas at one end. When the bulb is placed at the room temperature 27.0^0 C , the mercury column in the arm open to atmosphere stands 5.00 cm above the level of mercury in the other arm. When the bulb is placed in a hot liquid, the difference of mercury levels becomes 45.0 cm . Calculate the temperature of the liquid. (Atmospheric pressure = 75.0cm of mercury).

The pressure of the gas in a constant volume gas thermometer is 80cm of mercury in melting ice at 1 atm . When the bulb is placed in a liquid, the pressure becomes 160cm of mercury. Find the temperature of the liquid.

The pressure of air in the bulb of a constant volume gas thermometer of 0^o C and 100^o C are 73.00cm and 100cm of mercury respectively. Calculate the pressure at the room temperature 20^o C .

A barometer tube contains a mixture of air and saturated water vopour in the space above the mercury column. It reads 70cm when the actual atmospheric pressure is 76cm of mercury.
