What else can I help you with?
Will a metal cup or a styrofoam cup keep the hot water warm after a short time?
A metal cup would likely keep the hot water warmer for a longer period than a styrofoam cup due to its superior insulating properties. Metal is generally a better conductor of heat, so it is able to retain heat better than styrofoam, which is a poor insulator.
what type of cup keeps hot water hottest Paper or metal?
A metal cup will generally keep hot water hotter for longer compared to a paper cup. Metal is a better insulator than paper, so it helps to retain heat more effectively.
What happens to the heat stored in the metal when the metal is poured into the Styrofoam cup of water?
When the metal is poured into the Styrofoam cup of water, the heat stored in the metal is transferred to the water and the cup. This transfer of heat causes the temperature of the water and the cup to increase, as the metal cools down.
Which cup keeps water cooler metal or plastic cup?
metal cup because it has insulation
Will a metal cup keep a drink cold?
yes
What cup is easier to hold with hot water a plastic one or metal?
a styrofoam cup. i tried it on my science project
Which cup keeps hot water the hottest polystyrene or metal?
Polystyrene (especially the expanded "Styrofoam (R)" type) is a good insulator. Metals are good conductors of heat.The insulating cup will maintain a greater heat differential than the conductor so if there is a liquid in the cup that is at a greater temperature than the surroundings, the metal cup will loose more heat than the polystyrene cup.
Will water freeze faster in a plastic cup or a metal cup?
Water in a metal cup will freeze faster because metal conducts coldness and energy the most. trust me, I did a project with a metal, plastic, glass, and paper to see which cup would freeze the quickest. Hopefully this answer helped.
Can a styrofoam cup keep hot water hot?
A styrofoam cup can help to retain heat, but it is not as effective as materials like ceramic or insulated metal. Hot water in a styrofoam cup will cool down faster compared to using a better insulated material.
Is it safe to put just water in a microwave?
yes ,as long as the cup has no metal in it or gold bands on the porcelain which can cause sparks.
Do thermos cup or styrofoam cup keep water hotter?
thermos cup
Is using hot water to expand a metal cup a physical or chemical change?
Using hot water to expand a metal cup is a physical change. The change in size and shape of the cup is due to the expansion of the metal atoms when heated, but the chemical composition of the metal cup remains the same.
