Solution

The correct option is B Resistance
Using $Δ R = α R_{o} Δ T$ , where $Δ R$ =change in resistance, $α$ =temperature coefficient of resistance, $R_{o}$ =standard resistance, $Δ T$ =change in temperature
The linear variation of resistance with temperature allows it to be used as the thermometric property.
