BElectronic digital thermometer
CPotentiometer
DThermocouple pyrometer
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Electronic digital thermometer. For accuracy purposes, an electronic digital thermometer is the appropriate device to measure the temperature of a battery electrolyte. This is because electronic digital thermometers are designed to provide precise temperature readings without introducing any foreign materials into the electrolyte solution, unlike a mercury thermometer. The other options, such as a potentiometer or thermocouple pyrometer, are not suitable for directly measuring the temperature of a battery electrolyte.
