Experiment 6
               Making a Thermometer

Observation:

The height of the liquid in the straw increases when the bottle is placed into
                                        hot water.

The height of the liquid in the straw decreases when the bottle is placed into
                                       cold water.

Conclusion:

               Bowl of hot water:

Temperature    Liquid molecules               Expansion    Increase the
  of liquid       spread and                   of liquid   height in the
