What type of materials is an immersian heater used for?

The materials in a immerisian heater are used for making the heating element heat in water. Without them they couldn't be a chance for the heat to last.


How does heating a gas in a rigid container change pressure?

Heating a gas in a closed container would increase it's pressure. This would happen because when you heat the gas, the particles' kinetic energy increases, making them move faster, and more. They will hit the sides of the container and create pressure.


What are the benefits of immersion heaters?

Immersion heaters allow you to heat liquids directly. This is more efficient than heating the object that holds the liquid, because the heat must heat the container, then the container must heat the liquid. Other heaters cannot do this because they cannot be submerged into liquids.


What is test ring in Heat exchanger?

The test ring in a heat exchanger is the seal, that keeps the water from the heating container. The test ring should be changed every year.

Will a can of beans explode under heat?

Any sealed container that is exposed to high heat can explode. Unopened cans and jars should never be heated. They need to be opened before heating.


Why should you heat an uncovered crucible in a chemistry lab experiment?

A crucible is a heat-resistant container in which materials can be heated to very high temperatures. If you heat with the cover on, it could produce an overflow of the material.


How was oil created?

over long periods of time, mud and sand and other materials were deposited on top of them. Heat and pressure from these materials changed the dead matter into petroleum, or oil


Why might it be useful to build hoeses with materials that do not cunduct thermal energy?

That way, the house loses less heat, and you save on heating costs.


Will the volume change in the container?

Yes, depending on what material it's made of, it would have a different coefficient of thermal expansion. Materials expand with heat.


What things heat up when electricity flows through them?

Materials with electrical resistance. The heating in any circuit element is by Ohm's Law given by (Current)2 x Resistance. Some materials like silver and copper have very low resistance so little heating.


How improve the efficiency of Hotplate?

If your hotplate is not heating your solution or whatever you are trying to heat enough, I suggest some modifications to your container. You could try insulating say the glass flask with glass wool. There are also special insulating materials that are used for this purpose. If you do not have a separate temperature control for the hotplate you can try that too.
