They do not. Food items can be stored in containers which "click" shut. The important thing is to keep the container as air-tight as reasonably possible.
Several motivations are:
- to avoid the contamination of the content
- to avoid evaporation of the contant
- to avoid absorption of water vapors
- to avoid loss of the material if the container is overturned
A decrease will occur if the lid of the container is opened.
True
Water can be evaporated from a sealed container.
small container
Yes, they can. Sand is almost all oxides of silicon, and it won't react with water. There is no "danger" associated with filling a container with sand, adding water to cover it, then snapping on a lid. If you'd like to use a mason jar with a screw on lid, go for it. Just don't let either container freeze or allow it to get too hot, as freezing or boiling water expands and creates pressure.
A decrease will occur if the lid of the container is opened.
because someone remembered to put the lid or cap and closed it.
True
Yes but try to make sure the lid is closed. Ants love it.
If ammonia is left in an open container (no lid) the ammonia may evaporate faster than the water content. If its in a closed container it should be fine
The lid of an ice container is a thermal insulator
It depends on the size of the container...
If the container is plastic the lid will expand and pop off. If the container is ceramic/glass/metal condensation will form on the lid from the steam causing the food to 'sweat'.
The lid of the container filled with a quantity of the contents of that container The cap (lid) size will depend on the product
Watertight means that when the lid is sealed, water cannot get into or out of the container.
That is the correct spelling of the word "lid" (a cover to a jar or container).
I doesnt matter. You get more natural sound with the lid open with out a mic. If the lid is closed you can mike it from the underside.
