Will a bottle expand if it is frozen?
no
What alkali is in shampoo?
Alkalis expand and soften the hair shaft.
What is the problem with putting a full bottle of water in the freezer for a long period?
The bottle will expand and overflow.
Why does running bottle tops under a hot tap help to under it?
Heat causes materials to expand. Hopefully, the bottle top will expand more rapidly than the bottle and therefore the top will not adhere so tightly to the bottle and it can more easily be unscrewed.
Does sprite explode when cold why or why not?
when liquids freeze they expand so if you freeze anything in a full can or bottle it will have no space in which to expand and hence the can or bottle will explode. If you're freezing anything you should make sure there is space in the top of the container for it to expand.
Why does a bottle inflate when a bottle-and-balloon system is placed in hot water?
The hot water heats the air in the system, causing it to expand.
Why does an empty sealed bottle collapse with altitude?
Actually, an empty sealed bottle should expand slightly as altitude increases. At the altitude where the bottle is sealed, the air pressure outside the bottle is equal to the air pressure inside the bottle. When the bottle is transported to a higher altitude, the air pressure inside the bottle is greater than the air pressure outside the bottle (In other words: There are more air molecules per unit volume inside the bottle than outside). The increased air pressure inside the bottle relative to the outside pressure causes the bottle to expand slightly. An empty bottle would not collapse as altitude increases.
If champagne is frozen - will it be drinkable when thawed?
Yes, although being a liquid it will expand and break the bottle
Does hot water in a plastic bottle causes it to expand?
Not necessarily. You have to have a space of air in the bottle. The expansion/contraction happens because the water is heating/cooling the air. Liquids are usually considered incompressible and hence will not change their volume when heated or cooled (unless it evaporates or melts!). Assuming that you have an air space: If you have cold water in a sealed bottle that you heat up, it will expand. If you put hot water in a bottle and seal it, it will contract as it cools. If the bottle is not sealed, there will be no volume change.
Why a bottle get crushed when all its air is removed?
because the air has pressure so when we crush the air is expand
Pouring hot water over a tight metal cap enables the cap to be removed from a bottle more easily?
the metal cap will expand , and it will be easier to remove the cap from the bottle
Why do air bubble come out of the top of a washing-up bottle when you put it in hot water?
Because the heat from the hot water is transferred through the wall of the bottle to the inside, where it heats the air, causing it to expand and come out the top of the bottle.
