| molecules in a solid.... | attract each other. |
| each molecule in a solid.. | vibrate very rapidly. |
| as a solid becomes warmer... | the molecules vibrate faster |
| a solid will occupy a larger | space when it is heated. |
| when a thermometer is cooled... | the mercury contracts/gets smaller |
| when a liquid or solid is cooled... | its molecules bond more tightly |
| unlike other matter, freezing water... | expands when cooled. |
| Mr. Galileo.. | made the first thermometer |
| An alcohol thermometer is | most often used outdoors. |
| Alcohol does not freeze until | extremely low temp. is reached |
| Mercury is a silvery white element... | and is liquid at room temp. |
| mercury thermometers are used.. | for finding body temperatures |
| two main types of thermometers... | fahrenheit and celsius |
| freezing point on Fahrenheit therm.. | 32 degrees |
| boiling pt. on Fahrenheit is | 212 degrees |
| freezing pt. on Celsius therm.... | 0 degrees |
| boiling point on Celsius therm... | 100 degrees |
| normal body temp. on Fahrenheit therm... | 98.6 degrees |
