It is not ideal to put boiling water on a drinking glass since it may break. Is it true Why or why not?
When you pour hot water in a glass, the inner side of glass expands due to heat energy while outer side is relatively cooler. Due to this effect the pressure is developed and cracking of glass occur
Why does moisture condense on the outside of a glass of cold water?
That is called 'condensation'. It is the result of water vapor molecules in the atmosphere coming in contact with a colder environment. The vapor molecules begin to clump together as their electron activity slows and they coalesce as moisture on the side of the glass. The opposite activity is called 'evaporation'.
If you frequently change your brand of laundry detergent does this clean your clothes any better?
Not really. Laundry detergents are almost identical between different brands, even though they wouldn't let you believe this! Detergents have molecules with one side that prefers water (hydrophilic), and another side that prefers oils and fats (hydrophobic). The hydrophilic side attaches to water molecules, and the hydrophobic side attaches to oil molecules. This action allows the oil droplets to break up into smaller droplets, surrounded by water. These smaller droplets are no longer stuck to the material to be cleaned, and are washed away. So in answer, only the density of the molecules in the detergent would 'clean' better, a comparison would be a stain remover to a conventional cleaner. hope this helps!
Why does water bulge from the side of a glass?
Gravity for starters. Also, one must consider that water on glass has a coefficient of friction that is very low, therefore causing it to flow very freely to the lowest point. I have something to add to this. It is gravity, but its the viscosity level that makes water fill the bottom of the glass.
Is on a hot day drops of water collect on the outside of a glass holding iced tea a physical or chemical change?
Drops of water collecting on the outside of a glass holding iced tea is a physical change not a chemical change. It is simply atmospheric moisture condensing on the cold glass. Condensation is a physical process.
What do the water droplets on a glass indicate about the temperatures inside and outside the terrarium?
the water droplets indicate that the air is cooler on one side of the glass. If the droplets are inside, then the outside is cooler. If the droplets are outside, it means the inside is cooler.
What are the water droplets on the side of your water called?
i assume you mean a water bottle? If so it's called condensation.
When water is formed on the side of a glass it is called?
i believe its called condensation
When water evapurates and sticks to the side of a bottle what is it called?
it is the condensation of steam or water vapour that causes water droplets to stick on the sides of the bottle
What formation of droplets on the side of your window is called?
anal cogs... im serous that's the answer
What is liquid on the side of a glass called?
condensation
Is a new substance formed when water turns to steam?
No, just the physical form has changed from liquid water to water vapor. When the vapor cools, it will turn back into liquid water. You can see this process, called condensation, on the side of a glass full of ice. Water vapor touching the cold surface will condense back into liquid, and dribble down the side of the glass.
Why is the leward side of a mountain dry?
The Sun warms the ocean and evaporates the water. The water vaper then rises and condese back into little water droplets called coulds. Wind then blows these clouds along land until they are eventually stopped by a tall mountain. Unable to cross the peaks the clouds are trapped on one side and only rain on that side, leaving the other side dry.
Why do you see some water on the outside of a cold Pepsi can after some time?
Water Vapour from the atmosphere condenses into water droplets on the side of the soda can due to its low temperature. The same can be observed on the side of a glass filled with a cold substance.
What is the relationship condensation and dew point?
Condensation and Dew are related because Dew is practically Condensation since Condensation is Gas to a liquid. Humid turns to liquid. For example a cold glass of water that is outside for a long time. When you come back out you will see droplets on the side of the cup.
Why is there cold wet moisture around a cup of water?
When the warm air touches the cold, wet drink, the air cools and droplets of water form and drip down the side. The water that drips down the side eventually forms a puddle.
Where does the water on the outer side of the jar loaded with juice come from?
If the liquid inside the jar is colder than the surroundings, then the air near the jar will lose some of it's energy to the jar (and to the liquid). As the air cools water vapor in the air may turn to liquid, which forms water droplets on the surface of the glass. This process is known as condensation. Colder liquid will show a more damatic effect. Also the level of humidity in the air will affect how much water condenses on the glass.
