The water will turn to Ice. The act of freezing the water causes it to expand in volume. As a result the plastic bottle will swell and deform slightly but it will not burst or break.

A glass bottle

When we put a plastic bottle in the freezer it contracts, whereas when we put water it dilates. So while the plastic bottle contracts and the water dilates so the bottle eventually contracts.

The bottle, i don't know the correct term but it looks like all the air has been sucked out but actually the air has contracted if you put it in a warm place after the air should expand and the bottle should be back to normal

Rather, nothing will happen to the empty water bubble but just making the plastic cold. Actually, it isn't the plastic bottle that is affected, it's only the water that is being affected (if there is any).

It should get pushed in slightly as the molecules are moving slower therefore the pressure inside is reduced

Since air contracts with coldness the bottle starts to shrink like you sucking the air out of a bag except there is still air in there its just smaller

What happens to bottle kept in freezer for long time?

The plastic in the bottle (if it's plastic) goes into the water and it frezzes with it, so when you drink it your drinking plastic too, which is cancer. (Time it takes to have plastic into water.... 2 years)

yes, when you freeze water it expands, if you fill a plastic bottle full to the top with water then put it in the freezer, when it's frozen the bottle will have cracked or split. Hope i helped :)

Why does a plastic bottle filled completely with water and capped tightly burst open when left in the freezer overnight?

The water expanded when turned into ice. As there was no air space in the bottle, the plastic failed under the pressure.


Why does a bottle of spring water get crushed when you put the lid on an empty bottle tightly?

The plastic bottle (which is a blight on our planet and should not be bought and tossed away lightly) is made of very thin plastic. As thinly as possible to make it inexpensive to manufacture (so that it can be bought and tossed away thoughtlessly to fill landfills). A small drop in temperature, after the lid is on, will mean that the pressure in the bottle is less than the outside pressure so the bottle implodes. Try drinking the contents of a bottle of water, put the lid on and put it in the freezer. Observe what happens.


Why is it bad to put a bottle of water in a freezer?

Water expands on freezing, hence will shatter the bottle.
