What else can I help you with?
can hot water float on cold?
Yes, as hot water is less dense than cold water so it will float on top of cold water. Over time the temperatures will equalise due to natural conduction and convection.
What is the Difference between adding flour to cold water and hot water to flour?
Flour to cold water will just float on top, hot water to flour will cook the flour.
What type of water will things float down faster in warm or cold?
Cold will sink to the bottom. Hot water will rise to the top.
Why does hot water float above cold?
In hot water the molecules vibrate faster than cold, resulting in the same number of molecules taking up a larger space. This means that hot water is less dense than cold water, and thus floats above the cold water.
What happens when hot water is on top of cold water?
Hot water is lighter then cold water so it would stay up on top of cold water till both waters naturalize to the same temp. a good example is a water heater and (if its not to old) open your drain at the bottom of the water heater and if your dip tube is still good you should always get cold water out of it even if the water heater is on and your water heater pressure is on.
Witch freeze faster cold water or hot water?
I believe hot water freezes faster because it is supercooled. Cold water is non-supercooled. When cold water freezes ice crystals form and float to the top, forming a layer of ice over the top of the water, so the layer of ice stops evaporation . While the hot water, which is probably no longer hot in the freezer,when it does freeze, it freezes throughout, creating more or less of a slush before freezing solid.
Does hot and cold water mix with food coloring when hot water rises to the top?
Yes, hot and cold water can mix with food coloring when hot water rises to the top if there is sufficient turbulence or agitation to mix the colors together. The movement and flow of water can help distribute the food coloring throughout the container, allowing for mixing between different temperature layers.
What do you look for when a duel element hot water heater does not keep water hot?
The question doesn't contain enough information. When you open the hot water facet, does the water come out hot, but cools quickly? If so then you probably need to replace the dip tube. The dip tube insures that the cold water is injected at the bottom of the tank as the hot water is with drawn from the top of the tank. Dip tubes are mounted in the cold water input side at the top of the tank. some times dip tubes break off at the top so when you start drawing hot water from the top of the tank the cold water is injected into the top of the tank and this makes your hot water cool quickly. The water will come out hot, but will cool quickly. Normally when the cold water is injected into the bottom of the tank (through the dip tube) it will displace the entire tank full/column of hot water out through the top of the tank before the cold water gets to the top.
How does hot and cold water separate?
Hot and cold water can separate due to differences in their temperature and density. When hot and cold water are combined, the hot water tends to rise to the top because it is less dense than the colder water below. This process is known as thermal stratification.
Why does warm water sit on top of cold water?
Warm water is less dense than cold water, so it sits on top of the cold water. This is because warm water molecules are more spread out and have less mass per unit volume compared to cold water molecules, causing warm water to be less dense and float on top of the denser cold water.
Why does warm water stay on top of cold water?
Warm water tends to stay on top of cold water because it is less dense. When water is heated, the molecules move farther apart, making warm water less dense than cold water. This difference in density causes warm water to float on top of cold water.
Why cold water should start in making a stock?
There are a couple reasons. Just like making tea, you start with cold water because it is clearer. Hot water comes out of the tap foggy. The more important reason is that cold water doesn't immediately cook the proteins.(like blood in the marrow of the bones) It allows them to float to the top where you can then easily skim them off.
