...steadily diminishes, but below that point, though the cooling may progress at the same rate as before, it begins to expand, and continues to do so until it reaches 32°, when it freezes. The same fact is demonstrated on warming water at 32°: it contracts till 39° is reached, and then... | |

...regular law until it reaches a temperature of about 4° C. (39°'2 F.) • then, instead of contracting, it begins to expand, and continues to do so until it reaches the freezing point. About 4° it is at its point of greatest density, and just before it freezes it... | |

...When water is cooled, it contracts until 4° C. is reached. At this point, as the cooling goes on, it begins to expand and continues to do so until it reaches 0° C. Water is therefore densest at 4° C. ; at 0° C. its density is almost the same as at 8° C.... | |

... gradually till the freezing point of water is reached, which is 32 deg. Fahrenheit. The water in the tube will gradually contract, obedient to the great law, until it reaches the temperature of 37 J deg. Fahrenheit, and then, instead of still contracting,...
