Plastic containers seem more convenient than metal containers. This is because of their light weight, lower price and easy handling. They have strong strength and long lasting quality
Hope it helps!!😌😌
What else can I help you with?
Can you store used cooking oil in plastic containers?
No, it is not safe to store used cooking oil in plastic containers as it can degrade the plastic and potentially leak harmful chemicals into the oil. It is recommended to store used cooking oil in a metal or glass container instead.
What do you call a metal container of oil?
A metal container for large quantities of oil can be called a drum (usually 55 gallons). If it is a small amount of oil (usually a quart) the container could be called a can. Today, most small quantities of oil are supplied in plastic containers.
Do different containers have an effect on the speed of melting an ice cube?
Yes, different containers can affect the speed at which an ice cube melts. For example, a metal container will conduct heat more quickly than a plastic container, resulting in faster melting. Additionally, a container with a larger surface area exposed to the surrounding temperature will also lead to faster melting.
What storage containers are sturdy enough to hold books?
Plastic bins, metal shelves, and wooden crates are all sturdy storage containers that can hold books securely. Make sure to choose containers with solid bottoms and sides to prevent bending and damage to the books.
Is HDPE a metal?
No, HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) is a type of plastic polymer, not a metal. It is commonly used for making plastic bottles, pipes, and containers due to its durability, resistance to chemicals, and flexibility.
What are the advantages of using a plastic food container instead of a metal one?
Plastic food containers are usually see-through and allow people to see what is in the container. Plastic containers have an advantage over metal in that they do not rust. Plastic is also lighter than metal.

Explain why plastic containers are favoured to storing food?
While it is possible to store ice cream equally well in a metal or plastic container, plastic is better from the user's point of view. Metal transfers cold far better than plastic. Thus, it can become quite uncomfortable trying to hold onto a cold metal container. A cold plastic container is a poor conductor of cold. It does not make your hands hurt to carry it. A metal container has little give at the edges making it hard to scoop out the ice cream at the edges. A plastic container has more give at the edges. It is easier to get the ice cream at the edge of the container. It is easier to reattach a plastic lid on a container than a metal lid.

most likely metal
Which container holds heat the longest using glass metal and plastic?
This depends on the construction of the container but if the constructions are identical (the walls are equally thick, etc) the metal container will loose heat fastest. Different "plastics" have differing coefficients of thermal conductivity and so whether they conduct heat better or worse than glass depends on which "plastic" is in use.
How do you deal safe storage and use of gasoline?
Use only approved metal or plastic gasoline containers. Remove fuel containers from vehicles and place them on the ground before refilling. Fill containers slowly to reduce the buildup of static electricity. Never overfill the container. Secure the container for transportation to avoid spills.
