if its there long enough and gets hot enough and you drop it in water, it goes kaboom and shoots out its contents-trust me

What happens to molecules in a heated fluid?
Molecules will rapidly spread apart and move in every direction in the presence of a heated fluid, and tightly bunch up in cooler fluids.
How does the graduated cylinder work?
A graduated cylinder is simply a beaker with parallel sides and equally spaced volume markings along the side. As the sides are parallel the volume increases proportionately to the level of fluid in the beaker. Equally spaced markings ("graduations") are marked on the side of the cylinder to indicate the volume of fluid to that point.If you are using a graduated cylinder you will notice that the level of fluid (eg water) will seem to cling to the sides of the glass near the edge in a small radius due to the surface tension of the fluid. This radius is called the miniscus. Always read the volume of fluid from the marking at the bottom of the miniscus.
What is a current caused by the rising of heated fluid and sinking of cooled fluid called?
The current is called a convection current.
What is compress liquid?
A compressed fluid (also called a subcooled fluid) is a fluid under thermodynamic conditions that force it to be a steam. In a plot comparing absolute pressure and specific volume (commonly called a P-v diagram), of a real gas, a compressed fluid is to the left of the liquid-vapor phase boundary; that is, it will be to the left of the vapor dome.Some of the conditions that cause a fluid to be compressed are the following:§ A specific volume lesser than the specific volume of a saturated liquid§ A fluid temperature below the saturation temperature§ A pressure exceeding the saturation pressure§ An enthalpy smaller than the enthalpy of a saturated liquid
What happens to fluid when it vaporizes?
It becomes a gas
What is convecntion?
Convection is when heat causes a fluid to circulate around in a container.i.e. the fluid is heated at the bottom > the hot fluid rises to the surface and cools > the cool fluid then sinks again > the fluid is heated... etc.
If you heat up a fluid what happens to the volume?
The volume will increase as the fluid is warmed up.
What happens to the heated fluid if it is warmer than the fluid around it?
The hated fluid and the fluid around it will go to room temperature
When heat is transferred by convection what rises?
The warmer fluid at the bottom of the vessel being heated.
What happens to molecules in a heated fluid?
Molecules will rapidly spread apart and move in every direction in the presence of a heated fluid, and tightly bunch up in cooler fluids.
When reading the volume of fluid in a graduated cylinder the eye should be .?
Level with the bottom of the fluid's meniscus
What happens when a fluid starts to cool down after being heated?
it gets coldit gets cold
What happens when a solid and a lquid melts?
A solid melts when heated. aaliquid becomes more fluid or evaporates
How convection happens?
Convection happens due to the transfer of heat by the motion of a heated fluid such as air or water.
Why do heated fluids rise using the particle theory?
Heated fluids are less dense than their cooler counterparts. For example, water at 80 degrees F is less dense than water at 75 degrees F. Therefore, because it is less dense, it rises above the cooler fluid. This happens all the time when boiling water. The water at the bottom becomes more heated than the water at the top, and so rises to the top, moving the cooler water to the bottom of the pot, which then becomes heated and pushes the now cooler water that used to be on bottom back to the bottom, restarting the whole process. This is known as convection.
Why is your transmission fluid low when warm but full when hot?
That is normal. The fluid expands when heated.That is normal. The fluid expands when heated.
What happens to the density to the fluid as it becomes hotter?
The hotter part of the fluid becomes less dense and rises to the top. Where as the colder part of the fluid will be more dense and will sink to the bottom.
