The doctor dips the thermometer in liquid before use. It is because it is a antiseptic . The doctor checks the temperature of patients suffering from fever. It may have germs. When heated, the molecules of the liquid in the thermometer move faster, causing them to get a little further apart. This results in movement up the thermometer. When cooled, the molecules of the liquid in the thermometer move slower, causing them to get a little closer together.
