Question

The difference between upper and lower fixed points on all temperature scales is 100 degrees.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Lower fixed point- It is the temperature of melting ice

Upper fixed point-It is the temperature of steam.

Celsius scale-The unit of measurement on the celsius scale is degree Celsius, written as °C.

1. The lower fixed point is 0 °C.
2. The upper fixed point is 100 °C.
3. The interval between the two fixed points is divided into 100 equal parts. Each part is 1 °C.

Fahrenheit scale-The unit of measurement on this scale is degree Fahrenheit, written as °F.

1. The lower fixed point is 32 °F.
2. The upper fixed point is 212 °F.
3. The interval between the two fixed points is divided into 180 equal part= Each part is 1 °F.

Hence, The difference between upper and lower fixed points on all temperature scales is different.

So, the given statement is False
