In a glass of water at room temperature do all the modecules have the same speed?

The atoms in a liquid are combined and with the energy that is added to change the substance from a solid to a liquid, the atoms roll off and around each other but remain touching. Depending on whether the liquid is warmer on the top or particularly cooler at the bottom but if a liquid is all the same temperature then the atoms each have the same amount of energy and move at the same speed.

Is water condensing on a glass from increasing temperature?
Water is condensed on a cool surface.
Why does a thermocol glass containing water or ice does not burn when provided with heat?
Because the heat supplied to thermocol is absorbed by the water inside thermocol and this continues till the temperature reach the boiling point of water. Once the temperature reaches to boiling point of water then the temperature of water inside the thermocol is same as the temperature on the outer side of thermocol facing the heat and then only the thermocol glass will start burning.
Why does a ice cube melt in a glass of water?
Because water is warmer than 32 degrees and ice is colder. Setting the glass at room temperature causes the ice to melt.
Why does hot glass crack when placed under hot water?
Hot glass is less likely to crack than cold glass. It's down to the temperature difference. If the glass is colder than the water, its outside heats up, and expands. Glass is a poor conductor of heat so the inside doesn't get hot and expand nearly as quickly. This sets up strains in the glass, and because it's brittle, it cracks. .Hot glass may still have a sufficiently different temperature from the water to cause the same effect
How can you speed up osmosis?
Osmosis means the movement of the water molecules from an area of high temperature to a area of low temperature
Why do water droplet appear on outer surface of glass when cold water is poured in it?
The cold water reduces the temperature of the glass. The cold glass reduces the temperature of the air around the glass. The amount of moisture in air is temperature dependant hotter air can contain a higher moisture content. If the air temperature is reduced the water condenses. In this case the cold glass reduces the air temperature in contact with the glass, this results in the condenstion of moisture from the air, and water droplets are formed.
What happens when a glass of water at room temperature is placed in the refrigerator?
That would depend on three main factors: 1) The Initial Temperature of the glass of water 2) The temperature of the room 3) Time Additional Factors that could influence what happens: 1) Proximity to a heat source 2) Temperature of the surface the glass is sitting on 3) Lighting 4) Color of the glass 5) Type of glass 6) Shape of glass Heat always moves from a hotter area (higher energy) to areas that are cooler (lower energy), the outcome of the glass of water, will primarily depend on the temperature of the room and the temperature of the water. IF: The temperature of the water is lower then the temperature of the room then the glass of water will get warmer. I.e. the ice cubes in a glass of coke melting during a hot summer's day at the beach. IF: The temperature of the water is higher than that of the room temperature then the glass of water will get cooler. I.e. a glass of water freezing when set out side in the middle of winter in Antarctica. The other factors will mainly dictate how fast or slow the temperature change will occur. The temperature of the water will approach the air temperature.
Where will be speed of light minimum-water or air or vacuum or glass?
The speed of light is minimum in Glass. It is because light travels at minimum speed in solids.
Does the speed of light minimum in air or water or glass or vacuum?
glass
Ordinary glass is filled to the brim with water If the temperature decreased how much water could be added to the glass?
It depends on: -The current temperature of the water. (If it was already cold, the water would probably decrease because both heat and cold causes water to increases) -The size of the glass. -How much the temperature decreases.
Is it possible to change the temperature of a glass of water by stirring the water even though the glass is insulated from its surroundings?
no
How does the speed of light compare in water glass and diamond?
Speed of light in vacuum = ' c '-- Speed of light in Air . . 99.97% of ' c '.-- in Water . . . . . . . . 75% of ' c '.-- in Crown Glass . . . 64.9%-- in Flint Glass . . . . . 61.7%-- in Diamond . . . . . . 41.3%
Compare and contrast the speed in water and in the glass?

What is the temperature of a glass of cold water?
it depends how cold it is
What happens to a glass of water at a temperature of 20C when it is placed into a freezer set at 10C?
The temperature of the glass become also 10 0C.
Is water condensing on a glass from increasing temperature?
Water is condensed on a cool surface.
Is the speed of sound in water never changing?
The speed of sound depends on the temperature and the saltiness of water.
