If the mold inside a water jug is old or dried on, fill the jug with hot, sudsy water and let it stand for 20-minutes. Pour in 1/3 cup dry, uncooked rice and 1/3 cup baking soda. With the lid tightly closed, shake the bottle several time. The rice will loosen the mold and the baking soda will remove odors. Carefully open the lid, and pour the contents down the drain. Fill the jug half-full of hot water, a drop of dish soap, and shake well. Pour contents out and rinse thoroughly. Allow to air-dry upside down.

What does condensation mean for kids?

Condensation is when a vapor turns into a liquid. That is why you see water droplets on or inside of items in a refrigerator. For instance, take droplets inside a jug of milk. While the milk is sitting out, some of the water content in it evaporates inside the container but does not leave since the lid is on. Then you sit in inside the refrigerator. That vapor turns back into water because the refrigerator is cold, and the liquid runs back down the inside of the jug.


How do you thaw a glass jug of frozen water?

Will milk jugs sink or float in sugar water?

Sugar water is denser than plain water. A saturated solution -- it will not absorb one more gram of sugar -- is about 1.83 grams per milliter. Whole milk's density is 1.034 grams per milliliter. Thus a full jug of milk (assuming a thin plastic jug, not a heavy glass container, and no air in the jug) would float on sugar water. How far it would sink depends on the concentration of the sugar solution.

How long should you use a plastic water jug?

Plastic water jugs should typically be used for no more than 1-2 years, depending on the type of plastic and usage conditions. Over time, plastics can degrade and leach chemicals, especially when exposed to heat or sunlight. Regular inspection for cracks, cloudiness, or odors is essential to ensure the jug remains safe for use. If any signs of wear are evident, it’s best to replace the jug.

How does the milk bottle work?

There are several ways you could determine the capacity of a milk jug: 1: Fill the milk jug with water and then transfer the water to a graduated measuring jug 2: take a bottle of known volume such as a soda bottle. Fill the soda bottle and transfer its contents to the milk jug to get its approximate capacity 3: weigh the empty milk jug and make a note of the weight. Then, fill the milk jug with water. 1 cubic cm of water weighs 1 gram. Deduct the weight of the empty jug from the weight of the full jug to give the weight of the water inside. If, for example, the water weighs approximately 1000 grams then you have a 1 litre milk jug
