What will happen to a bottle of ammonia left open in the air?

If left open in the air, ammonia will slowly evaporate because it is a volatile compound. Over time, the concentration of ammonia in the bottle will decrease until eventually, it will be completely gone.

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

When you suck air out of a bottle, you decrease the air pressure inside the bottle. The higher air pressure outside the bottle then pushes the walls of the bottle inwards, causing it to shrink. This is due to the difference in air pressure inside and outside the bottle.


If you blow air towards a bottle what happens to the airflow?

Blowing air towards a bottle can either increase or decrease airflow within the bottle, depending on factors such as the pressure of the blown air and the size of the bottle opening. If the blown air has higher pressure than the air inside the bottle, it may push air into the bottle; conversely, if the blown air has lower pressure, it may draw air out of 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 is hypothesise of egg in bottle?

The hypothesis for an egg in a bottle experiment could be that when the fire heats the air inside the bottle, the air expands and escapes. This creates a lower air pressure inside the bottle, allowing the egg to be forced into the bottle due to the higher air pressure outside.


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.


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.
