Why does a bottle of spring water get crushed when you put the lid on an empty bottle tightly?

The plastic bottle (which is a blight on our planet and should not be bought and tossed away lightly) is made of very thin plastic. As thinly as possible to make it inexpensive to manufacture (so that it can be bought and tossed away thoughtlessly to fill landfills). A small drop in temperature, after the lid is on, will mean that the pressure in the bottle is less than the outside pressure so the bottle implodes. Try drinking the contents of a bottle of water, put the lid on and put it in the freezer. Observe what happens.


What happens to the level of water in the straw when you squeezed the bottle?

When you put a straw in a water bottle I think the straw stinks and then when you let go of breathing in the water bottle I think it increases and then after that I think when you boil water and then you put the straw in the bottle and put the boiling hot water in the bottle and then I think the straw is like cutting it thanks for reading this but I think it's the wrong answer sorry if it is


How many mL is there in a plastic bottle of water?

I have seen plastic bottles of water in MANY sizes from 100ml to 4,000 ml.


Why is it that plastic bottle full of water does not melt under coal fire?

If the plastic can stand going up to 100 celsius without melting, the water will gradually heat up and the plastic bottle will remain at the water temperature. Eventually the water will start to boil at 100 celsius. If the bottle is closed it will explode under steam pressure. If the steam can escape, the bottle will stay at 100 celsius until the water has evaporated, then it will rapidly heat up and melt.


Is pouring boiling water into a plastic bottle dangerous?

It is not advisable to pour boiling water in a plastic bottle. It can cause skin burns if it spills on you. And the plastic bottle could melt or shrink! Wait until the water has cooled off before transferring it into plastic.

What happens when you keep a bottle of water in the freezer?

Does hot water in a plastic bottle causes it to expand?

Not necessarily. You have to have a space of air in the bottle. The expansion/contraction happens because the water is heating/cooling the air. Liquids are usually considered incompressible and hence will not change their volume when heated or cooled (unless it evaporates or melts!). Assuming that you have an air space: If you have cold water in a sealed bottle that you heat up, it will expand. If you put hot water in a bottle and seal it, it will contract as it cools. If the bottle is not sealed, there will be no volume change.


How much water does it take to make a plastic bottle?

double the amount of water that fits inside the bottle.


What happens to bottle kept in freezer for long time?

The plastic in the bottle (if it's plastic) goes into the water and it frezzes with it, so when you drink it your drinking plastic too, which is cancer. (Time it takes to have plastic into water.... 2 years)


Can you bring a plastic water bottle on a plane?

Yes, you can bring a plastic water bottle on a plane, but it must be empty when you go through security. You can refill it after passing through security at a water fountain or purchase a sealed bottle of water inside the airport.

How many calories are in a 40 oz water bottle?

It depends on with what you fill the bottle. If the bottle is filled with water, then 0 calories are inside the bottle. As for the bottle itself, I have to recommend not consuming the plastic and getting your calories elsewhere.


Why is there a filled plastic bottle inside the flushing cisterns?

What happens when you put a filled plastic water bottle in an open fire?

In the first place the water in the bottle would keep the temperature of the plastic down preventing it from burning and leaking, The same as you would do by boiling water over a flame in a paper cup, However the water in the bottle would heat up and eventually the pressure inside the bottle would burst it like a balloon.


Does a water bottle float on top of water?

An unopened water bottle contains a small pocket of air, allowing it to float. If the water bottle were to have this air removed, its buoyancy would be determined by the purity of the water inside and outside of the plastic.
