Description
- this hands on lab activity allows your students to make and experiment with a simple thermometer
- students will explore heat expansion, conduction, and how temperature changes pressure in this lab
- demonstrates how the heat energy of an object or substance is transferred to another
- illustrates why temperature and heat are not the same thing
- students realize that temperature measurement depends on the movement of molecules in a mixture
- easy set up and materials list
- designed to be student friendly
- recommended for Physical Science and Conceptual Physics (algebra based)
TEKS covered
I.6F - properties of water including temperature
C.11B – law of conservation + heat transfer in calorimetry
C.11D – calculate heat, mass, temp change, and specific heat
NGSS Standards Covered
MS-PS3-4 - temperature
HS-PS1-5 – temperature
