Condensation occurs on the outer surface of the glass when you keep ice cubes in the glass at room temperature or hotter.

Why do ice cubes stick together at times?

A cold glass of water sometimes causes water vapour from the surrounding air to condense onto the surface of the glass. The same thing happens with ice cubes, but instead the water droplets condensing on the surface, they will instantly freeze and 'weld' ice cubes together. They also can stick together if put into a drink, where again, the water in the drink near the surface of the ice cube may get cold enough to freeze and cause the ice cubes to fuse together.

You will observe a pencil on a glass of water. Unless you're not looking that way, in which case, you will observe whatever you happen to be looking at. Unless, you're blind, in which case you won't observe anything.


What is a good experiment using sugar cubes and sugar crystals?

i think it does because sugar cubes are shaped like a cube and they are much bigger than sugar crystals . and also it affects the amount of sugar you are putting in the glass and i think using sugar cubes would do a good experiment of dissolving sugar


What does the outside of the glass with ice cubes feel like?

It feels like ice , and glass like . · The glass filled with cold water and ice cubes felt cold on the outside as well.


What occurs when light strikes a transparent surface like glass?

When light strikes a transparent surface like glass, three main things can happen: transmission (light passes through the glass), reflection (light bounces off the surface), and refraction (light changes direction as it enters or exits the glass due to a change in speed).


How can I learn how to read a storm glass effectively?

To effectively read a storm glass, observe the liquid inside for any changes in clarity, bubbles, or crystal formations. Research the traditional interpretations of these changes to predict the weather accurately. Practice and compare your observations with actual weather conditions to improve your skills in reading a storm glass.


Why can't you operate a lava lamp on a glass surface?

Glass melts at between 900 degrees F and 1650 degrees F while the lamp operates at an estimated 100-130 degrees F, however, differential temperature changes, especially rapid changes in temperature may cause a glass surface to crack. The lamp is made of glass, and the bottom of the lamp usually has a felt pad, so there is no mechanical reason why the lamp may not be used on a glass surface except it may slip, and the manufacturer's instructions specifically state DO NOT operate the lamp on glass surfaces.

What happens to a glass filled half way with water and then ice cubes are added?

As the ice cubes are added to the glass, they displace the water that was already in the glass. The level of water in the glass will rise slightly due to the displacement caused by the ice cubes, but the total volume of water and ice combined will remain the same as before the ice cubes were added.


Why does a glass of ice cubes in water melt faster than a glass of ice cubes in a glass of soda?

Ice cubes that are in water are in full contact with a liquid medium with high rate of heat transfer. in soda, some of the surface of the ice is in contact with gas bubbles that have low rate of heat transfer. Liquid transfers heat (melting the ice) faster than air.
