Thermometer Calibration

Place your thermometers in the ice water, and stir slowly and gently

Record the temperature for each thermometer

Remove the thermometers from the ice water and allow them to return to room temperature

Once the water in the 1 L beaker is boiling:

Place your thermometers into the boiling water and stir slowly and gently

Record the temperature for each thermometer

Remove the thermometers from the boiling water and allow them to return to room temperature

On the graph paper provided, label and plot the data for your thermometers
