Among common liquids, ether has a particularly high coefficient of thermal expansion.
A thermometer utilizes the fact that most liquids expand when heated. As the temperature of the liquid inside the thermometer increases, its volume expands, causing the liquid to rise within the narrow tube of the thermometer and indicating a higher temperature reading.
The liquid in a thermometer expands when it gets hotter because heat causes the molecules in the liquid to move faster and spread out, leading to an increase in volume. This expansion is what causes the liquid to rise up the tube of the thermometer, indicating a higher temperature.
When a liquid is heated, the particles gain energy and begin to move more rapidly. This increased kinetic energy causes the particles to move farther apart and slide past one another more easily. As a result, the liquid expands and becomes less dense.
Ethanol expands more than water when heated because it has a higher coefficient of thermal expansion. This means that ethanol will increase in volume more than water when heated to the same temperature.
Sort of. In the temperature range of 0-4 Degrees Celsius water contracts when heated and expands when cooled. Outside of this temperature range it behaves normally.
Only one liquid expands when heated and thats water the most common liquid.

Ice melts into water, wax melts into liquid, and metal expands when heated.
Well, n-pentane, acetone, and ethyl ether all have high cubic expansion coefficients, but all are highly flammable.You'll have to get the actual values yourself, but include the commonly used ones such as mercury, alcohol, and water.
