I'm curious.

Me too, learnt a buttload a bout all kinda things cause of it....

For a house with central air, is the thermometer located in the same
module as the control switches?

Yes, usually theres some kind of indicator of current temp as well as a
target setpoint for system controls switching on all but the most basic of
thermostats.

So if the control thingy is located in let's say the kitchen, and you
turn your AC to run auto at 70 degrees, and the kitchen is 80 degrees
while all the other rooms are 65 degrees, the AC will keep running
anyways?

Yup.........

And its called a "thermostat".........

The temperature where its located will control the entire system, regardless
of the temprature in other areas, so long as its only a single thermostat
connected.
