    (a) Mercury scale and ideal gas scale
    (b) Celsius scale and mercury scale
    (c) Celsius scale and ideal gas scale
    (d) Ideal gas scale and absolute scale
    digAnsr:   c,d
    Ans : (c) Celsius scale and ideal gas scale
    (d) Ideal gas scale and absolute scale
    Celsius scale and ideal gas scale measure temperature in kelvin (K) and the ideal gas scale is sometimes also called the absolute scale. A mercury scale gives reading in degrees and its size of degree, which depends on length of mercury column, doesn't match any of the above-mentioned scales.
