The statement of calling it a vacuum mean there a no atoms between a space without the atoms or molecules in this space heat can not be transferred. Without this transfer of heat things can not heat up or cool down.

What is the name of the thing used to keep liquids warm or cold?
Vacuum flask.
Why does tea stay hot in a glass teapot?
Heat can be transferred in three ways: conduction, convection, radiation. In a vacuum flask, conduction and convection are greatly reduced through a vacuum (hence the name!) between two glass layers, whereas radiation is greatly reduced by the mirror coating on the same glass. As a result, heat takes much longer to get out - or in, since you can also keep cold things in a vacuum flask.Note that no vacuum flask will keep things hot (or cold) indefinitely; it simply takes much longer for hot things to cool down, or for cold things to heat up.
What Vacuum flask keeps liquid at same temperature?
There is no way to permanently store heat. The most you can expect, from a high-quality vacuum flask, is to keep the liquid cold, or hot, for a fairly long time. But gradually, some heat will seep in, or out, until the temperature in the vacuum flask will be equal to the temperature of the surroundings.
Vacuum is mantained in thermos flask?
The vacuum reduce heat loss by conduction and convection.
How does a vacuum flask keep tea hot?
Insulation
What is A container to keep drinks cold?
A flask. It also keeps drinks hot.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of vacuum flask?
the advantages are-keep heat for longerreusablelightweightpopularthe disadvantages are- expensivesometimes made from bad materialscan be harmful to environment
How do you keep water warm for the longest time without using any heat source?
If the water is cold, you can keep it cold by storing it in a well insulated container, ideally a vacuum flask, or failing that, a Styrofoam chest. That doesn't keep it cold indefinitely, but it does keep it cold longer than if you did not use an insulated container. Also, even if you do not have electricity or ice boxes, you may still be able to buy a bag of ice. Many stores sell them.
What word means substances that keep warm things warm and cold things cold?
Things which keep warm things warm and cold things cold are referred to as insulators.
How did James dewar invent the vacuum flask?
During an experiment, James Dewar formed a brass chamber that he enclosed in another chamber to keep the palladium at its desired temperature. He evacuated the air between the two chambers, and through the need for this insulated container, he created the vacuum flask.
What can be held in a thermos flask?
Hot drinks such as tea and coffee are usually held in a thermos flask. The flask will keep the drink warm for several hours when one is outside or on the move. Cold drinks can also be kept in them or even non drinking liquids that one wishes to keep at a steady temperature.
How does vacuum flasks keep hot liquids hot and cold liquids cold?
by inhibiting heat conduction
