Why is it that plastic bottle full of water does not melt under coal fire?
If the plastic can stand going up to 100 celsius without melting, the water will gradually heat up and the plastic bottle will remain at the water temperature. Eventually the water will start to boil at 100 celsius. If the bottle is closed it will explode under steam pressure. If the steam can escape, the bottle will stay at 100 celsius until the water has evaporated, then it will rapidly heat up and melt.
What happens when you put a filled plastic water bottle in an open fire?
In the first place the water in the bottle would keep the temperature of the plastic down preventing it from burning and leaking, The same as you would do by boiling water over a flame in a paper cup, However the water in the bottle would heat up and eventually the pressure inside the bottle would burst it like a balloon.
Why do the bottle filled with water do not melt when kept in fire?
Because the temperature of water can't normally go beyond 100 degree Celsius , because that is the temperature of boiling water. When we keep any bottle with water on fire, heat transmits from bottle to water and since the temperature of bottle and water should be almost same, the temperature of bottle does not go far beyond 100 degree Celsius. And since the melting point of the bottle(plastic) are in general above 100 degree Celcius they don't melt.
