A Thermometer is a Closed System.
As from definition any system which can release and except energy but no reduction or increment of mass, is called a closed system.
A thermometer can only take and release energy or heat. But no Mercury vapor comes out from it and neither can we insert any thing.

∙ 9y agoA thermometer is a closed system because no mass enters or exits the thermometer, but energy can cross the system boundaries. If mass crosses the boundaries the system is "open" (and the thermometer is apparently broken). If no energy crosses the boundary, the system is "isolated" - but then the thermometer wouldn't be of much use would it?

dial thermometer
How can thermodynamics be applied to a ship?
Many ways, and it depends on the type of ship. A large ship will benefit from thermodynamic analysis of the HVAC system (especially if it is a refrigerated cargo ship); smaller ships will also benefit from this as well. In addition, most thermodynamic solvers on the market will also do fluid solutions, which is obviously helpful for a ship.
What is intensive property of thermodynamic system?
Intensive properties are independent of the mass of the system. Examples include (but are not limited to) temperature, density, and specific enthalpy.
When is a thermodynamic work said to be positive?
In thermodynamics, work done by a system on its surroundings or another system is said to be positive.
Definition of lab thermometer?

How do you make a sentence for enthalpy?
Enthalpy is a thermodynamic property of a thermodynamic system.
What are the conditions for availability in a thermodynamic system?
You can search the relevant meaning of the availability condition for thermodynamic system in the wikipedia since there's so much to learn and laws of thermodynamic equilibrium that explains what and those condition works.
When cooking a popcorn what thermodynamic system should be considered?
please read the 3 kinds of thermodynamic system maybe it can help you to recognize and you can identify which one can be described. http://www.greenserveuk.com/
What are some examples of a thermodynamic system?
Heat Flow and Energy.
Is the heat supplied to a system always equal to the increase in its internal energywhat thermodynamic variable is defined by zeroth law and first law of thermodynamic?
The heat supplied to a system can increase its internal energy if no work is extracted from the system. If any work is done by the system, then the increase in internal energy will be less than the heat supplied to the system. The thermodynamic variable defined by the zeroeth law is Temperature.
Can you use thermodynamic in a sentence?
There are three laws of thermodynamics, not inlcluding the understood fourth law. Thermodynamics is the study of how energy is transferred in a system.
What is thermodynamic equilibrium in physics?
Thermodynamic equilibrium is when the inputs and outputs of a system is equal. This may be in terms of heat energy or in terms of liquid/gas flow.
What is used to measure in degrees Celsius Fahrenheit or kelvin?
Electronic balance
What are various thermodynamic systems?
there are three systems : 1 open system 2 close system 3 isolated system
