What cools faster glass bottle or can?

Considering cans are metal and metal is a better heat conductor than glass (any cook will confirm that from years of burnt fingers) then I'd say GLASS would be able to cool quicker. It's easier for glass to loose thermodynamic energy than metal.

How do you store essential oils?

In a cool dark area. In dark glass bottles (with dropper tops for easy dispensing).


Is it faster to cool beverages in ice only or ice water?

ice water, cause the cold temperature is touching more of the bottle or cans surface area so it cools down faster


What is the quickest way to cool a drink?

To cool cans and bottles down quickly, take a wet paper towel and wrap it around the outside of the container. Then put it in the freezer for approximately 15 minutes and come back to enjoy your chilled can or bottle.


What cools liquid faster glass or shiny metal?

Metal is a better conductor than glass and the heat will conduct out better, hence, water will cool down faster in metal container. Thermal conductivity for glass is approx. 1 W/m.K For Metal Aluminum 204 W/m.K Iron (pure) 73 W/m.K Nickel Chromium (80%:20%) 12 W/m.K


Why do glass bottles hold soda cold longer than cans?

Drinks would stay cooler for a longer time if it is in a bottle. This is because bottles are insulators of heat. So they slow down the heat from reaching the liquid in it. As in cans, which are metal, they are conductors of heat. So heat penetrates easier to the liquid thus making the drink to loose it's coldness faster. So my bet is that drinks stay cooler in a bottle.


What happens after 5 minutes when you pour hot water in two cans - 1 can is black and 1 can is shiny?

The water in the black can can be expected to cool down faster, due to radiation.


What type of mug will make boiling water cool down faster?

If the mug is made of glass, it will allow the water to cool faster. A thick styrofoam cup is better than a paper cup, even though the insulating properties of the materials are similar.


If you want your hot chocolate to be warm what would be better in a styrofoam or a glas?

Styrofoam. If you use glass most of that heat would transfer to the glass and heat that up causing the hot chocolate to cool faster


Why would ice alone melt faster in a glass container instead of a plastic container?

A glass container, because glass is a liquid that has the ability to form as a solid, while glass looks like a solid at a molecular level the atoms are actually moving, just like a liquid, the formation of glass molecules is highly irregular. But because the atoms are moving the energy or heat from water is allowed to escape past these molecules and cool the water.


Why do you store areosol cans in a cool area?

If you increase the temperature, you increase the kinetic energy of the particles in the can. This means they move faster. The faster they move, the more they hit the side of the can. This causes pressure. Lots of pressure inside a can = *BOOM* (like when a coke bottle explodes in a freezer)
