Temperature is measured via thermometer. It also measures the hotness or coldness of a system or surroundings. It is based on the physical and chemical properties of a fluid such as thermal expansion of fluids (fluids expand when heated and compress at a low temperature) by studying the kinetic energy of the molecules of the fluid.
