clinical thermometer has a kink to prevent mercury from being fallen back on of its own where as a laboratory thermometer does not have one. A laboratory thermometer should be kept upright not tilted for taking temperature reading.We cannot use a thermometer to measure the temparature of a stove flame. ... When it is brought near the bulb of the clinical thermometer the mercury inside the thermometer will rise very quickly resulting in the break of the glass of the thermometer and the mercury will come out of the thermometerWe should avoid keeping the clinical thermometer in the sun or near a flame.
