Yes, they can. Sand is almost all oxides of silicon, and it won't react with water. There is no "danger" associated with filling a container with sand, adding water to cover it, then snapping on a lid. If you'd like to use a mason jar with a screw on lid, go for it. Just don't let either container freeze or allow it to get too hot, as freezing or boiling water expands and creates pressure.
What else can I help you with?
Will water evaporate in a closed container like a closed pipe?
Water can be evaporated from a sealed container.
Can water evaporate in a closed container after 15 years?
No, water cannot evaporate in a closed container after 15 years as the evaporated water would condense back into the liquid form due to the closed environment preventing the water vapor from escaping. The water cycle within a closed container would reach equilibrium, resulting in no net loss of water over time.
How to separate salt and sand from water and calculate the percent of mass?
You add water to the container then you stir, the water and salt would form a solution and sand would settle on the bottom of the container. You get another container and place on a filter paper then you pour the water into it, which would lead to the sand staying in the filter paper and the solution, which is made of salt and water, would be left. Finally, you place the container on a source of heat which will cause the water to evaporate and salt staying in the container. Now weigh the residue and find the percentage.
How can you separate sand and water in a liquid?
Allow the mixture to stand without disturbance, until the heavier sand sinks to the bottom of the container; then skim the water from the top of the container. Also, you can boil the mixture evaporating the water into another pot or bowl thus leaving behind the sand. Filtration is another possibility.
How do plants grow in a closed container?
Plants can grow in a closed container by utilizing the available air, water, and light within the container. These resources are recycled through processes like photosynthesis and transpiration, allowing the plant to thrive. However, plants may eventually outgrow the container if not properly managed.
Will water evaporate in a closed container like a closed pipe?
Water can be evaporated from a sealed container.
What will be the outcome of mixing sand with with water?
The sand will simply go to the bottom of the container of water. Water and sand do not mix.
Can water evaporate in a closed container after 15 years?
No, water cannot evaporate in a closed container after 15 years as the evaporated water would condense back into the liquid form due to the closed environment preventing the water vapor from escaping. The water cycle within a closed container would reach equilibrium, resulting in no net loss of water over time.
HOw to seperate sand and water?
it depends on the container vessel; it is likely you can use a container/ box / vessel with small drainage holes at the base, and allow the water to soak through the sand ., leaving the sand behind.
What changes take place when water is left in an open container in a closed container?
When water is left in an open container, it can evaporate due to exposure to air. In a closed container, the water vapor will eventually reach equilibrium with the liquid water, leading to increased humidity inside the container. If the container is completely sealed, no water vapor can escape, leading to a buildup of humidity over time.
What happen when sand mixed with water?
Nothing - sand and water do not react because sand is relatively inert. The sand will sink to the bottom of the container because it is significantly heavier than the water.
What will water evaporate more quickly in a closed container or a sealed pipe?
From a sealed container or pipe water cannot be evaporated.
How do you properly wash sand to remove impurities and debris?
To properly wash sand to remove impurities and debris, you can follow these steps: Place the sand in a container or bucket. Fill the container with water and stir the sand to loosen any debris. Allow the sand to settle, then carefully pour off the water, taking care not to pour out the sand. Repeat the process of filling the container with water, stirring, and pouring off the water until the sand is clean. Once the sand is clean, spread it out to dry before using it for your desired purpose.
What will happen if we put saltsand and water?
The salt will dissolve in the water, and make the water salty. The sand won't be dissolved, and the sand will sink to the bottom of the container.
How to separate salt and sand from water and calculate the percent of mass?
You add water to the container then you stir, the water and salt would form a solution and sand would settle on the bottom of the container. You get another container and place on a filter paper then you pour the water into it, which would lead to the sand staying in the filter paper and the solution, which is made of salt and water, would be left. Finally, you place the container on a source of heat which will cause the water to evaporate and salt staying in the container. Now weigh the residue and find the percentage.
Can evaporation occur in a closed container?
Yes, evaporation can still occur in a closed container, but the rate of evaporation will eventually slow down because the amount of water vapor in the container will reach an equilibrium with the liquid water. At this point, the rate of condensation will equal the rate of evaporation.
Explain fully how Joanne separated the salt and sand mixture so that she finshed with salt crystals in one container and sand in another container?
Joanne could dissolve the salt in water to separate it from the sand. She would then filter the mixture, allowing the sand to remain on the filter paper while the saltwater passes through. Finally, she could evaporate the water from the saltwater to obtain salt crystals in one container and collect the sand from the filter paper into another container.
