What will happen in a sealed bottle when the air is heated and then allowed to cool?

The bottle will collapse when the bottle has heated air


Why when you suck a air of a bottle it shrinks?

When you suck air from a bottle you create a partial vacuum and there is less air pressure in the bottle; but outside there is atmospheric pressure so it tends to collapse the bottle.


Why do we get dew on the surface of a cold soft drink bottle kept in air?

Moisture in the air condenses on the cold bottle. If the air is dry, there will be no dew on the bottle.


What happens when you put a balloon on a water bottle and put it in hot water?

Air inside the bottle expands when the bottle is heated. Some of it leaves the bottle until the pressure of the heated air remaining in the bottle equals the pressure of the air in the room. The balloon is then placed over the neck of the bottle and prevents any more air from entering or leaving the bottle. The air inside the bottle cools to the temperature of the ice water. The cooler air inside the bottle takes less space (volume) than it did when hot, so it sucks the balloon inside the neck of the bottle. Air pressure inside the bottle causes the balloon to stretch and enlarge until the air pressure inside the bottle, including the air in the balloon, has the same pressure as the air in the room.

Moisture in the air condenses on the cold bottle. If the air is dry, there will be no dew on the bottle.

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.


How do pop bottle rockets work?

There is water in the bottle and the air gets compressed to launch the bottle into the air, and when it reaches apegy, the parachute comes out and lands the bottle safely.
