How does the cup a liquid is in affect its temperature?

By the heat conductivity the material the cup is made from.


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.


When you have a cup of boiling hot water next to a cup with ice cold water how does the movement of the water molecules change in each case?

Equilibrium of temperature. The water is trying to reach the same temperature as the environment it sits in. a cup of hot water has a higher temperature than the room so therefore begins to cool. a cup of cold water has a lower temperature than the room and therefore begins to heat up. both reach equilibrium when at the same temperature as the room


What type of cup hold temperature longest?

A cup fabricated from a heat-insulating material, with a closed top to prevent heat flow from the contents to the surrounding air. Examples: Metal . . . bad Foam Ceramic Double wall with air or vacuum space . . . good


Do liquid have a fixed temperature but no fixed shape?

A liquid (water) takes on the temperature you give it. You need to boil the water if you want to brew a cup of tea. Having brewed your cup of tea, it will take on the shape of the cup you use. Therefore, gas and liquids take on the shape of the container.

Does the color dye in clear water effect it's temperature?

The dye will not affect the temperature of the water unless you have very small quantities of water. There can be a change of temperature when a solid dissolves but we are unlikely to observe this if there is a small amount of solid compared to the volume of water. If you are using less than a cup of water you may observe a temperature change.


Can you get dew to form on a cup at room temperature?

No


How do temperature and stirring affect?

i would say yes, if the temperature of the beverage is different from the temp. of the environment it is in.by shaking or stirring, the area of the beverage touching other material (cup/ice/air...) is increased, and so the temperature difference will be neutralized faster. to test this, put ice cubes in 2 cups and add beverage. stirr only one cup. if the cup being stirred melts the ice faster, then stirring made a difference.
