Hold it by the top or use a clamp. But make sure before you take the temperature you stir the liquid around in the beaker first and that you do not let it touch the bottom of the beaker as the glass will be hotter than your liquid.


What would happen to a marble if dropped into an empty container like a beaker while the person dropping it was in motion?

The marble will have the motion of the person who dropped it (I assume you mean by 'dropped' that it is not thrown by the person, just dropped), whilst I assume the beaker is stationary. I also assume the person is moving horizontally and the beaker is upright. Therefore the marble will arrive in the beaker with some sideways velocity and will strike the side of the beaker with a horizontal component of velocity as well as a vertical component. I should think it will spin round the beaker a few times before coming to rest, it might even bounce right out. You can't predict this exactly without some more information.

Where should a beaker be placed with respect to the flame for the most efficient heating on Bunsen burner?

The most efficient, and safe, place for a beaker to be heated is above the flame. Have the beaker held up by the proper metal stand and have it held so that the flame is grazing the bottom of the beaker. Be careful though, the flame should only graze the bottom of the beaker so that the chemical doesn't heat up too quickly.

Why was it important not to let the thermometer rest on the bottom of the breaker?
