Why pyrex or borosil glass is used in testubes?
Because they make the glass less likely to break during extremes in temperature.
Why would a milk bottle probably crack if boiling water were poured into it?
When you pour hot water into a glass bottle, it heats up the glass very quickly. This causes the glass to expand suddenly and the expansion is not uniform over the surface of the glass. The unequal expansion cracks the bottle.This will happen only if the temperature difference is quite high and the glass is weak.It is easier to crack a glass bottle by heating it (like in a dishwasher) and then cooling it immediately by placing it in or under a stream of cold water. Here, the sudden contraction causes the glass to crack.
What happens when warm water makes a cold glass crack?
When warm water makes a cold glass crack it contracts.
Is heating a glass tubing a physical or chemical change?
Heating is a physical process.
Do quartz toaster heating elements have a non-stick coating?
The quartz glass used in heating elements is used because it's transparent to infrared wavelengths of light. The glass has no coating whatsoever.
What is borosil?
Borosilicate glass is a special type of glass which does not melt/crack on heating at high temperatures .It is used in many places such as science labs , at home , in construction ,etc. It is a mixture of salt of boric and silic acids
Can borosil be used for cooking oven?
Borosil's bake and serve range of products can be used in the oven. Please follow the instructions that come with the products. Glass is the best medium for cooking in the oven from the hygiene and aesthetic point of view. Glass doesn't have 'micro pores' like plastic. Therefore molecule of food cannot embed themselves into the glass. This is the reason why glass doesn't become yellow/opaque like plastic after periods of cooking. Borosil's quality is the best; you can easily use it for all your heating, cooling and storage needs.

What is the melting point of borosil glass?
Borosil glass is used in cookware. The melting point is a very high 500 degrees. Softening will occur after only a few minute exposure at this temperature.
Why did the glass tube breakcracks when it is heated?
Because it is not rotated while heating. As a result one side gets much hotter than another. This results in the two sides expanding to different extents. This leads to stresses which then crack the glass tube.
what is an borosil?
like bottle

How would the heating curve for glass be different from the heating curve for water?
the glass is malleable
Kate and Janie are about to pour water into a beaker when they notice the beaker has a crack at the bottom. What should the students do with the beaker?
Inform their teacher and then throw the beaker in the broken glass
Science fair do heating and cooling effect the strength of glass?
No, heating and cooling does not effect the strength of a glass
What happens when warm water makes a cold glass crack?
When warm water makes a cold glass crack it contracts.
Is heating a glass a chemical or physical change?
Heating is a physical process.
