What happens when energy is removed from gas?
The gas gets colder. Get it cold enough, it becomes a liquid.
What is a thermometer made out of?
a liquid thermometer is made with a glass "shell" and ussually have murcur inside them that dilates when it gets hotter and rises and contracts when its colder and lowers- this has been made by a 12 year old boy
How does the liquid in a thermometer move up and down?
When the liquid in the thermometer gets warmer it expands. This means its volume increases. The only place for the extra volume to go is up the tube, so the level of liquid rises. When the liquid gets colder it contracts (reduces in volume) so it moves back down the tube. See http://www.energyquest.ca.gov/how_it_works/thermometer.html
Why does the liquid expand in a thermometer when it gets hotter?
In a thermometer is a liquid metal called Mercury, so the liquid expands when it is heated up.
What happens when the temperature goes down?
That means that it gets colder.

What happens to the particles in a liquid when it solidifies?
It gets colder... if this is not what you were looking for, then really sorry! - R.J M.V
What causes the liquid to move in a thermometer?
When the liquid in the thermometer gets warmer it expands.
When heat is removed from liquid water at 0 degrees C what happens to its temperature?
It gets colder and freezes Actually it first freezes then it gets colder only after it is all frozen.

What burns you as it gets colder?
liquid nitrogen
What happens when a liquid condenses?
I don't think you can condense a liquid, you can evaporate a liquid eg water which turnns into water vapour then when the water vapour gets colder it cools and condenses
What happen to the liquid in a thermometer when it gets warm?
The liquid expand from heat. We use these expansion to indicate temperature. Common thermometer liquid is Mercury and alcohol.
What happens when the temperature in a river rises and what happens when it falls?
it gets warmer then it gets colder
Does a solid get warmer or colder when it turns into a liquid?
It gets warmer so it melts into a liquid
