Why do drink bottles explode when you freeze them in the freezer ful to the top with water?

Water has the peculiarity of expanding when it freezes. If the glass jar is completely filled, the expanding water is too large for the jar, and hence shatters the jar. Leaving a space of about an inch and a half i the jar will allow the water to freeze without breaking the glass.

What happens if you put an empty Coke can in the freezer?
The name soda normally implies gassy or "fizzy". Soda is fizzy because carbon dioxide, a gas, is dissolved in the water under pressure. When you open the soda the pressure inside the can is released and the gas bubbles out. The carbon dioxide sits happily in the water while under pressure, because it is quite soluble. However, carbon dioxide is not soluble in ice. When you freeze soda the gas comes out of solution, and causes an unusually high pressure in the can. You will often see the can distort, sometimes to the point of becoming almost a perfect sphere. Opening a can of frozen soda is always messy and can be dangerous. If you get a can like this, put it away in a safe place. As it thaws the carbon dioxide will go back into solution, the pressure will return to safe levels and the can will return to almost its original shape. It's OK to drink it.
Why do ice cubes stick together at times?
A cold glass of water sometimes causes water vapour from the surrounding air to condense onto the surface of the glass. The same thing happens with ice cubes, but instead the water droplets condensing on the surface, they will instantly freeze and 'weld' ice cubes together. They also can stick together if put into a drink, where again, the water in the drink near the surface of the ice cube may get cold enough to freeze and cause the ice cubes to fuse together.

In your freezer several bottles vodka have frozen to a slushie state but no one has watered them down any explanations?
alcohol freezes at a lower temperature to water. putting vodka in the freezer will not freeze the alcohol it contains but will freeze everything else! This means the ice in the bottle is the 'everything ese' and the liquid is the pure alcohol! But forgod's sake dont drink the pure alcohol.

What is the fastest way to cool a drink?
Well, there are many ways, depending on the drink. For most, putting the drink in the fridge/cooler/freezer or putting a few ice cubes in the drink is most effective.One method is to get some plastic food type dishes large enough to hold however many drinks cans/bottles you wish to cool.Put a small amount of water in the bottom and freeze it. Top the water up once frozen, and repeat until you have a about 1 inch of reasonably flat ice in the tray in the freezer. When you want to quickly cool some cans put them in the freezer on the ice. After several uses "rings" will melt into the top of the ice increasing the surface of ice in contact with the can. As water below 4oc is less dense than warmer water it rises to the top of the can allowing warmer drink in the can to sink to the bottom and be cooled by the ice.A 440Ml can of drink is quite cool after about 15mins, and will have started to freeze in under an hour, while the same can is hardly cooled at all after an hour in a fridge.Remember to remove from the freezer after about an hour, as if the can(s) freeze they will probably burst, which (Trust me!) is VERY MESSY!
Are durable plastic bottles safe to freeze and drink out of?
Yes, they are.Many people including me put some water or some form of liquid (orange squash) into the plastic bottle then into a freezer to freeze.But be careful as a liquid turns into a solid it may become slightly bigger. So do not fill it right to the top!
