Solution

The correct option is D Beckmann thermometers are used to read actual b.pt. or f.pt. of liquids
A Beckmann thermometer is a device used to measure small differences of temperature, but not absolute temperature values.
Also as $T^{0} C = T + 273.15 K$ so change in temperature on celsius scale or kelvin scale is same.
