When the temperature drops around the thermometer, the mercury gives its heat to the surrounding area, looking for balance, because of that, the particles have less energy and get closer together, causing the mercury to contract.

  • The volume in the bulb (lower part) is way bigger than the volume in  the tube
  • It was invented by Daniel Fahrenheit using the fahrenheit scale but is also used in Celsius
  • Replacing the glass with fused quartz makes the thermometer’s limit in temperature go up to 800°C
