A potato cube is placed in a beaker filled with hot salt water and another potato cube is placed in a beaker filled with cold salt water?

The hot saltwater will cause the potato cube to absorb the water due to osmosis, while the cold saltwater will cause the potato cube to release water. The difference in temperature affects the rate of osmosis – higher temperatures increase the rate, while colder temperatures decrease it.


What happen to the mercury when the bulb placed in hot water?

When a thermometer bulb containing mercury is placed in hot water, the mercury inside expands, causing the level of mercury to rise. This expansion of mercury is used to measure the increase in temperature accurately.


Sugar cube in hot water is simple diffusion?

Yes, when a sugar cube dissolves in hot water, it is a form of simple diffusion. The sugar molecules move from an area of higher concentration (sugar cube) to an area of lower concentration (water) until equilibrium is reached.


Would all of the energy lost by hot water be transferred to an ice cube?

In a perfectly-insulated container, with a perfectly-insultated cover, all the energy of the hot water is distributed between the hot water and the ice cube. As the ice cube melts, this statement is still true, but the ice's latent heat of fusion may draw the hot water down to near freezing point, even if its mass is small compared to the mass of hot water.


Is a sugar cube dropped in hot water an example of diffusion?

Yes, a sugar cube dropped in hot water is an example of diffusion. The sugar molecules move from an area of higher concentration (the sugar cube) to an area of lower concentration (the hot water) until they are evenly distributed. This process is a type of diffusion called passive diffusion.

What happen to the hot water when placed in the freezer?

When hot water is placed in the freezer, it will begin to lose heat to the colder environment. As the water cools down, it will eventually reach its freezing point and turn into ice. The end result will be a solid block of ice once the water has completely frozen.


Does a ice cube melt faster in air or hot water?

Most likely hot water.


How long does it take an ice cube to melt in hot salt water?

It depends on how hot the water is


Why sugar dissolve faster in hot water?

solutionswhen a sugar cube dissolves in water, it becomes a solutionof sugar and water. a solution can be said to be a homegenous mixture of the water and sugar molecules. in order for this to happen, the sugar cube molecules have to become free from each other to mix freely with the water molecules. this requires energy, since the bonds between the molecules in the sugar cube have to be broken. since hot water has more energy than normal water, it is easier for the sugar cube to dissolve.


How long would the ice cube stay in the hot water?

That would depend on the temperature of the cube and the water along with the volume of water and the mass of the ice cube and its area.


What happens when you drop a sugar cube into a hot mug of tea?

using diffusion what might happen when you drop a sugar cube into a mug of tea. For the sugar cube ,since the sugar cube is source, the molecules will diffuse into the hot water the sugar cube will despair


How long does it take to melt a full ice cube under hot water?

It takes exactly 14.0 seconds to melt a full ice cube under hot water.


How long would it take to dissolve a sugar cube in hot water?

that depends on the quantity of water and the size of the sugar cube .......if i am correct
