Correct option is B
The correct answer is (a) and (c).
Water cannot be used in thermometer because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than other liquids. If water is used in a thermometer, it will start phase change at 0°c and 100°c and will not measure temperature, out of this range. This range is very small as compared to other liquids as mercury, having freezing point about - 39°c and boiling point 356°c
