What would be the result of removing heat energy from a cup of water?

Removing heat energy from a cup of water would cause the temperature of the water to decrease, eventually leading to it cooling down and possibly freezing if it reaches the freezing point.


What cup will freeze water faster glass or a foam?

Water will freeze faster in a glass cup compared to a foam cup because glass is a better conductor of heat than foam. This means that the glass cup will transfer heat away from the water more quickly, leading to faster freezing. Foam cups insulate better and will retain heat, making the freezing process slower.


How can freezing water break a glass?

Water is poured into a cup then the temperature decreases below 0 degree celsius what happens next?

The water freezes into ice. In the process of freezing, liquid water expands 15% to form the crystalline structure of ice. So if your cup isn't sturdy, it's possible that the ice will shatter your cup. If your car's radiator has water instead of the proper mix of water and antifreeze, the ice crystals can crack your engine block and destroy the engine. Water freezing into ice is a VERY powerful force.


How much salt is needed in one cup of water to not freeze?

To prevent water from freezing, you typically need to add about 1.5 to 2 cups of salt (sodium chloride) per gallon of water. For one cup of water, this translates to approximately 1-2 tablespoons of salt, depending on the desired freezing point depression. However, the exact amount can vary based on temperature and other environmental factors.
