The water will eventually evaporate, leaving a dry, empty glass. Any Impurities or dust in the original water will remain as a slight staining on the glass. If the glass of water had stood in bright sunlight, algae may have formed, making any staining greenish in colour.

What happens when you leave a glass of water in the closet?

If the glass of water is left in the closet for an extended period, it can become stagnant and potentially grow bacteria or mold. The water may also evaporate over time, leaving behind mineral deposits on the glass.


What happens when a glass is set in the sun until the water evaporates?

After some time whole water is evaporated.


What happens to dissolved sugar when the hot water cools?

After the water cools the sugar will remain dissolved, although once all of the water is evaporated then the sugar will be left at the bottom of the glass. It's pretty fun to try with a clear glass or something. P.S. Sugar will dissolve in cold water too, it just takes more stirring.


What does glass do in sea water?

Sea glass left in salt water does not do a whole lot. Since clear glass is composed of soda-lime, it is possible that leaching could occur. However, even very old glass found in salt water still has a shiny surface if not subjected to physical contact with other objects. If the glass is subjected to physical contact with other materials, however, chipping will occur. This usually is a result of oscillations in the water, most noticeable in beach glass or sea glass, that is glass found on beaches between mean high and low tide lines where the most tumbling from waves occurs. This results in a "frosted" look from the minute chips caused by tumbling with small rocks and sand. This, of course, is not a chemical reaction but from the physical contact with other objects. A chemical reaction can occur when exposed to sunlight, for example, on the beach. Other ingredients in the glass (minerals for color, or impurities) can change color when subjected to ultraviolet rays over a period of time. This, however, is not due to the water and is not the basically glass itself that is affected.

How to Remove water mineral stains on glass?

To remove water mineral stains on glass, you can use a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water. Apply the solution to the stained glass, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub the area with a sponge or cloth. Rinse the glass with water and dry it with a clean towel to reveal a streak-free shine.

What will happen to the mass and weight of a glass of water left over many days?

The mass of the glass of water will remain the same if there is no evaporation or addition of any substances. The weight of the glass of water may decrease slightly due to evaporation of water over time, but this change would be very small for a short period.

When salt water evaporates does it turn in fresh water?

Yes, it does. When the water evaporates, it can not take the salt with it, so if you left a glass of salt water out, when it is evaporated the salt will be on the glass.


How do you separate salt and glass particles?

One way to separate salt and glass particles is by using a process called filtration. You can pour the mixture into a filter paper in a funnel, and the salt will dissolve in water and pass through the filter paper, while the glass particles will be left behind. Another way is to use a process called sedimentation, where you let the mixture sit undisturbed for a period of time, allowing the glass particles to settle at the bottom while the salt remains suspended in the solution.


What happens to copper if it is left in water for a long period of time?

Copper left in water for a long period of time can undergo a process called oxidation, where it reacts with oxygen in the water to form copper oxide. This can cause the copper to turn green or develop a patina on its surface. Additionally, prolonged exposure to water can lead to corrosion of the copper over time.


What happens when a cold glass of iced tea sits outside in the sun?

Water will condense from the air onto the glass, so it will develop droplets of water. and the tea will warm up, if left outside for a long enough time. If it is sweat tea, it will draw flies and some kinds of bees.
