    In the same manner mark the point where the fluid stabilises when the thermometer is placed in boiling water vapour. Divide the length between the two marks into 100 equal parts. These points are adequate for approximate calibration, but both the freezing and boiling points of water vary with atmospheric pressure.

  9. Freezing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freezing

    Freezing is a phase transition in which a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] For most substances, the melting and freezing points are the same temperature; however, certain substances possess differing solid-liquid transition temperatures.
