Answer:
An alcohol thermometer can measure the freezing point of a liquid that freezes at −80 °C.
Explanation:
A thermometer is a device used to measure temperature. A thermometer must contain a thermometric substance. A thermometric substance is any substance having a particular physical property that changes with temperature.
For all liquid-in-glass thermometers, the property that changes with change in temperature is the height of the liquid. There are two kinds of liquid-in-glass thermometers; mercury-in-glass thermometer and alcohol-in-glass thermometer.
Alcohol-in-glass thermometer measures very low temperatures up to as low as -115°C. If it measures such a low temperature, then it can efficiently measure -80°C hence the answer.
Alcohol-in-glass thermometers have a narrower temperature range than mercury-in-glass thermometer. The later is well adapter for the measurement bof higher tempetures up to 357°C.

Answer:
The configuration of the atom would be 2-8-2.
Explanation:
Any atom of an element combines with other element to complete its octet and become stable.
The electron configuration of the given atom is 2-8-6. That means the atom has 6 electrons in its outermost shell. To become stable the atom should have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. The given atom has 6 electrons so it either lose 6 electrons or gain 2 electrons to complete its octet.
But we know the atom having 5,6,7 electrons in its outermost shell they do not lose, they gain either 3 or 2 or 1 electrons to complete its octet.
So we say that atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 bond with the atom having electron configuration 2-8-2.
Answer:
The answer is combustion.
