Why does the alcohol in a thermometer go down when the weather is cold?
As the atoms lose energy (through the cold weather) they lose energy and vibrate less. If you imagine this, as they vibrate less, they don't bump into each other as much and the spaces between the particles decrease. As the spaces get smaller, the whole liquid gets smaller, causing the liquid to "go down".
Does alcohol turn into sugar once it is in the body?
