What happens if energy is added to or remove from a glass of water?

If a sufficient amount of energy is added to a glass of ice water, the ice will melt, and if a sufficient amount of energy is removed, the water will freeze solid.


What happens if energy is added to a glass of ice water?

If the energy is heat, the water will warm up. If it is kinetic, like throwing it against the wall, the glass will absorb the energy and probably smash into bits.


Why is glass transparent?

When the electrons in molecules are unable to absorb the energy of incident photon, the photon continues along its path. This happens in the case of glass, even though glass is not 100 percent transparent, as some of the photon energy is absorbed by the glass electrons.


What happens if you add or remove energy to a glass of water?

if you add it will stay liquid but if you remove it will freeze


Does asphalt have glass in it?

It's not supposed to. Asphalt is a petroleum derivative (the stuff left after all the volatiles are removed), and there may or may not be rocks (crushed stone) added.


What happens to water vapor when it cools on a glass of ice tea and becomes a liquid?

what happens is that the air(vapor) changes state back to liquid when it hits the cold glass since the temperature lowers the energy of the gas and transforms it back to a liquid.


What happens if energy is added or taken away from a glass of ice water?

That depends on how much energy, but simply:added, more ice melts to water - if enough is added all the ice will melt and the temperature risestaken away, more water freezes to ice - if enough is taken away all the water wii freeze and the temperature will dropAs long as there is both ice and water the temperature will hold constant.


When energetic electrons in the glass vibrate against neighboring atoms what happens to the energy of vibration?

their kinetic energy is transferred to the electrons of the neighboring atoms and kinetic energy is conserved as most molecular collisions are elastic.


What happens to light that passes through a curved piece of glass?

It gets separated into different beams of energy such as earth wind and fire.


What happens if glass stays in ur foot?

eventually it grows skin around the glass and it hurts so badly u must have it surgically removed. This happened to my Mom. She had it in her foor for a few years and it deformed her toes and made them crooked.


Why is potential energy the energy of a glass on a table?

Because the glass is not have any other energy, so it has the potential for energy. Potato. Apple. -I_Am_Boss


How would a calorimeter constant be effected if it were made of glass instead of styrofoam?

The Calorimeter Constant is the energy in joules needed to increase the calorimeter container(glass beaker or styrofoam cup) by 1 degree Celsius. Glass has a lower specific heat capacity (J/g)x(Degrees Celsius)than styrofoam. Which means it takes less energy for glass to accumulate or lose heat than it does styrofoam. Therefore a glass calorimeter will have a lower calorimeter constant due to heat(energy) escaping. In a reaction that you're trying to measure change in heat in a solution, a styrofoam cup will hold in the reactions change in heat better and therefore you will be able to calculate the energy absorbed into the cup and add it to the energy calculated in the solutions reaction, while the energy or heat absorbed in the glass will already escaping and so it will be a lesser value(calorimeter constant) that is added to the energy in the solutions reaction..... This was hard to grasp since initially i thought the energy being released from the reaction, into the glass would mean it heats up the glass more than the styro cup, and i thought that it would have more energy to be added to the energy calculated in the reaction
