yes it can i left a 50C max temperature thermometer in my truck in the sun for 20 Min's and it exploded. No idea if there was any noise with this event, but the base red part was completely blown away with no signs of any of glass fragments. I'm guessing it had to have hit 70C as I've been in a dry sauna before at 75C and it felt much the same. Hot to the point that you can not move at any speed cause the air feels like open flame near your face. cheers if anyone gets bored enough one day to put a 50C thermometer in a pot of water with a digital thermometer and actually test this i'd be curious to know the answer!
p.s. never leave a pet in any vehicle unattended without a window open.
What else can I help you with?
How do you tell how hot or cold something is?
use a thermometer.We can feel how hot or cold something is. However, sometimes things are just too hot or cold for us to feel safely. At other times we need to know exactly how hot or cold something is. When we need to measure temperature correctly we need to use an instrument called a thermometer. This measures temperature in degrees Celsius [sometimes called centigrade] or degrees Fahrenheit. There are different types of thermometers for different situations. A medical thermometer, for example, needs to be very accurate. It measures in fractions of degrees. When we are ill, even tiny changes in temperature are important. Some thermometers use a liquid that moves up a very fine glass tube. Most room thermometers, and outdoor thermometers are like this. The liquid is either mercury [ which is poisonous] or coloured alcohol. As liquids get warmer they expand [get bigger], and move up the tube. Water expands too, but not as much as alcohol and mercury. Thermometers that might be used by small children are not made of glass. They use a digital display which lights up the temperature. Inside the displays are chemicals that change colour according to the temperature.

We cannot use a clinical thermometer to measure temperature of a candle flame because then the mercury will expand too much and the thermometer will explode.

No...absolutely impossible. If you did, your face would melt off and your children would explode.
