What else can I help you with?
On which cup keeps liquid hot the longest styrofoam glass plastic or paper?
syrofoam
What keeps water hotter paper or styrofoam?
styrofoam, but warning fammable and unsafe for the environment!
Is styrofoam plastic or paper?
Styrofoam, or polystyrene, is plastic.
Is the density of styrofoam less than paper?
nobc the Styrofoam is heavyer than paper
Which type of cup will keep a hot drink, warm longer paper, plastic, Styrofoam or glass?
Styrofoam cups are generally the best at keeping hot drinks warm for a longer period of time. This is because Styrofoam is an excellent insulator, meaning it does not conduct heat well and therefore helps to keep the temperature of the drink constant. Paper cups and plastic cups are also decent insulators, but they are not as effective as Styrofoam. Glass cups are poor insulators and are not recommended for keeping hot drinks warm.
Is paper mache heavier than Styrofoam?
Paper mache is generally heavier than Styrofoam. This is because paper mache is made from paper and glue, which adds density and weight, whereas Styrofoam is a lightweight material composed of expanded polystyrene foam. The specific weight can vary based on the thickness and composition of the paper mache, but in most cases, Styrofoam is significantly lighter.
What type of cup keeps water warm the longest-plastic paper styrofoam or glass and why?
Styrofoam because it has a thick layer and is a good insulator.Paper and plastic are could alternatives but Styrofoam would work better, therefore glass would be the worst one to use because it would only keep it warm for a couple of minutes.
How do you stop the use of styrofoam in schools?
You can replace styrofoam with something more recyclable like paper containers
Can you paper mache styrofoam balls and paint over the paper mache without ruining the styrofoam?
Yes, you can papier-mâché styrofoam balls and paint over them without ruining the styrofoam. To do this, use a water-based adhesive for the papier-mâché, as solvents can dissolve styrofoam. Once the paper layers are dry, you can safely paint over them with acrylic or water-based paint. Just ensure that the paper-mâché layer is fully dry before applying any paint to avoid moisture damage.
How long do styrofoam cups last?
Styrofoam cups last in the landfill for hundreds of years. Paper cups break down much faster. Paper would only last for a month.
What type of cup keeps water warm the longest-plastic paper styrofoam or glass and why results?
A glass cup would keep water warm the longest because glass is a good insulator and retains heat well compared to plastic, paper, or styrofoam which are poorer insulators. This is because glass has a lower thermal conductivity compared to the other materials, so heat escapes more slowly.
What are some everyday insulators?
styrofoam cotton plastic paper cheese
