A kink is not present in laboratory thermometer. Therefore, the reading should be taken when the thermometer is immersed in the fluid. The thermometer should not touch the sides or the base of the container as the container may not have the same temperature as the fluid (especially if the container is not a very good conductor of heat). Thus, keeping the thermometer in touch with the container may give an inaccurate reading.
