Measuring Heat

We measure heat by a thermometer. The lines on a thermometer mark the degrees of heat.

1. Notice that there are 5 spaces on this thermometer for every 10 degrees. How many degrees are represented by each space? 2. What temperature is shown on this thermometer?

3. The freezing point of water is 32 degrees (written 32°) and the boiling point How many degrees are there between

212°.

these two points?

4. If the water in a kettle is at 78°, how

many degrees must the temperature rise before the water will boil?

5. The proper temperature of a room is 68°. How much more heat is needed if the thermometer in a room shows 59°?
