Why does acold drink develop water on the outside of its container?

The water on the outside of the glass is formed by the moisture in the air condensing on the cold surface of the glass. It is condensation.


Why don't droplets of water form outside a glass of hot water?

temperature of the hot water combined with that of its container is higher than the ambient temperature and when the surrounding air strikes the container, the temperature of the air increase and this increases the vapour state of the air. note, for water to form around the outside of the hot water glass, the temp of the water must be lower than the temp of the surrounding air (condensation).


When ice turns to water in a container What is the liquid on the outside of the container?

The liquid to which you are referring is likely condensation - water. When water vapor in the air encounters something cold, such as a container with ice in it, the vapor tends to collect and condense into liquid water around the cold object. The same thing happens with a glass of ice water on a hot day.


What is the water on the outside of a glass water called?

The water that forms on the outside of a glass of [ice] water is called condensation. It occurs because the surface of the glass is colder than the air surrounding the glass, which causes the water vapor in the air to cool and condense into a liquid on the outside of the glass.


What causes water to appear on on the outside of a container?

condensation


What is the process when water is formed outside a glass?

When water forms outside a glass, it is due to condensation. This occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a cold surface, causing the air to cool and the water vapor to condense into liquid water droplets on the outside of the glass.


What is example condenstation?

When you have a glass of cold water from the fridge that you take outside, because it's hotter outside, little drops of water will form on the glass.


Why do you put a water in a container outside in the sun?

Water left in a container outside in the sun heats up due to solar radiation. This can be useful for warm showers, laundry, or general cleaning.


Is water on the outside of a glass from the air?

Yes. The cool glass causes water vapor in the air to condense.


Does water cool faster in a glass container or can?

Water cools faster in a glass container compared to a can because glass is a better conductor of heat than aluminum, which is the material typically used for cans. This allows heat to transfer more efficiently from the water to the surroundings, leading to faster cooling.


Ice water placed in a dry glass on a warm summer day will cause the water to appear on the outside of the glass.What is the process that forms water on the outside of the glass?

The process is called condensation, the ice water touching the glass causes the glass to cool and which causes the water vapour in the air to condense on the outside of the glass.


What happens to water outside?

If the water is left outside in an open container it eventually will evaporate. If left outside during cold weather it could freeze.
