Question

franklin makes a measurement which reads 22°c. he is most likely measuring the temperature of
the air in a room.
ice.
boiling water.
a person with a fever.

Explanation:

• For ice, its temperature is around \(0^\circ\text{C}\) (or below), so \(22^\circ\text{C}\) is too warm for ice.
• Boiling water has a temperature of \(100^\circ\text{C}\) (at standard pressure), so \(22^\circ\text{C}\) is not boiling water.
• A person with a fever has a body temperature above the normal \(37^\circ\text{C}\), so \(22^\circ\text{C}\) is too low for a feverish person.
• Room temperature is typically around \(20 - 25^\circ\text{C}\), so \(22^\circ\text{C}\) is a reasonable temperature for the air in a room.

Answer:

A. the air in a room.
