<h2>Answer</h2>

Liquid in thermometer chnages on the basis of changing temperature

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Mercury is the most commonly used liquid in a thermometer. The thermometric property of mercury is that it expand or contract with change in temperature. With a rise in temperature, the liquid gets heated and expand and when temperature reduces, the liquid moves down to the tube. This thermometric property  of mercury is used to measure temperature.

Most liquids expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled.

A thermometer consists of a bulb of liquid connected to a thin capillary tube.

When the liquid is heated, it expands and moves up the capillary column. When the liquid cools, it contracts and moves back down the column.

You can determine the temperature by reading the position of the liquid against a graduated temperature scale.

What concentration of so32– is in equilibrium with ag2so3(s) and 2.60 × 10-3 m ag ? the ksp of ag2so3 can be found here?
lubasha [3.4K]
When the Ksp of Ag2SO3 is 1.5 x 10^-14 

and when the reaction equation is:

 Ag2SO3 ↔ 2Ag+(aq) +  SO3-- (aq)

so,

Ksp = [Ag+]^2 *[SO3--]

by substitution:

1.5 10^-14 = (2.6 x 10^-3)^2 *[SO3--]


∴ [SO3--] = 2.2 x10^-9
