Question

Statement I : Gallium is used as a thermometric liquid
Statement II : Gallium has wide liquid range of temperature

Easy
Solution

Melting point of Ga is : ~30o

Boiling point of Ga is : 24030

G{a_{\left( S \right)}}\mathop \to \limits_{{{30}^0}} \,G{a_{\left( l \right)}}\mathop \to \limits_{{{2403}^0}} \,\,\,\,G{a_{\left( l \right)}}

\therefore Ga exists as liquid between 300 to 24030 .

→ Any compound exist as liquid between melting point temperature and boiling point temperatures .So "Ga" has wide liquid range and hence it is used as thermometric liquid for measuring high temperatures.
