Which food was correctly cooled?

The soup was correctly cooled by being transferred to a shallow container and placed in an ice water bath before being stored in the refrigerator to ensure rapid cooling and prevent bacterial growth.


Does freezing a water bottle make the outside of it wet?

Not exactly.The water that appears on the outside of the icy bottle is condensation of the water vapor in the air around the bottle. The cold temperature of the ice in the bottle causes the condensation. There are lots of water molecules in air -- there is more water in the air on a humid day then on a hot dry day, but there is always some water in the air. When air is cooled by coming in contact with the icy bottle, it condenses, and goes from being a gas to being a liquid (just like how steam turns back into water when it cools). It is the condensed water from the air that makes the outside of the bottle wet.If a cold bottle was in air that had no water vapor in it (unlikely except in a laboratory), then it would not get wet.


Water freezing in bottle when opened?

When a bottle of water is opened, the pressure inside the bottle decreases, causing the water to start freezing because of the drop in temperature. This phenomenon is known as "flash freezing" and occurs rapidly when the conditions are right, such as in very cold temperatures.

How many hours does a refrigerator operate in a day?

This is difficult to answer, because it depends on many factors -- how often the door is opened, the ambient temperature, how much is in the refrigerator, and whether new items were recently added to the refrigerator and need to be cooled down. Most frost-free refrigerators have a timer that runs them for 6 hours, then defrosts them for 30-35 minutes. This means, at the the upper limit a refrigerator might run 24 hours out of every 26 hours, or an equivalent of 22.1 hours per day. (The timer only runs when the compressor runs on energy saving models, so if the compressor motor doesn't run continuously, the intervals between defrost periods will be longer than 6 hours.) Once the contents are cooled down, a modern refrigerator in good condition might be expected to run 27% to 37% of the time at an ambient temperature of 70°F, i.e., 6.5 to 8.9 hours per day, and 45% to 61% of the time at an ambient temperature of 90°°F, i.e., 10.8 to 14.6 hours per day. The only practical way to determine how long a refrigerator runs each day is to connect a run-time counter to the compressor motor circuit and operate the refrigerator for one to two weeks, or longer, then read the total run time from the counter and calculate the average number of hours the refrigerator ran each day.

How is the air cooled in a household refrigerator?

It goes through the pipes


An unopened bottle of water is taken out of the refrigerator and placed on a table After a while the bottle is covered with droplets of water What phase change has occurred?

Condensation has occurred, as the water vapor in the air has cooled down upon touching the cold surface of the water bottle, leading to the water vapor turning back into liquid water and forming droplets on the bottle.


What happens to the level of the water in the straw when the water in the bottle is cooled?

When the water in the bottle is cooled, it contracts and creates a lower pressure inside the bottle. The higher atmospheric pressure outside the bottle pushes the water up through the straw to equalize the pressure, causing the water level in the straw to rise.


Why does hot air in a bottle collaspe in cold water?

When water is cooled, it shrinks. If the water is in a sealed bottle, it shrinks the bottle, too, collapsing it to some degree.


Can it is possible to use water cooled condensor for domestic refrigerator?

Did you get an answer? I've found some references to water cooled refrigerators on boats, but can't find anything online about residential models.


When was the first iceberg formed?

Sometime back in prehistory, when the Earth had cooled enough, and stayed cool long enough.


I heard that hot chicken broth will spoil if put into a refrigerator in a sealed container. Should be cooled in the refrigerator first before putting on a lid tightly so that it won't spoil?

Bad advice.


Can a kitchen be cooled by leaving the door of the refrigerator open?

No, although the short-term effect would be for the refrigerator air / freezer air to mix with and cool the air in the room.The function of refrigerator is a heat exchanger; it removes heat from the inside of the fridge and pumps it to the outside of the fridge.If we open the refrigerator door, it will remove the heat from the air that mixes inside, but then will exchange the heat back into the kitchen. That's why the room can't be cooled for a long period. In fact, due to waste heat, the room could become warmer once the refrigerator contents have reached room temperature.


Is it safe to store food in a pot in the refrigerator?

Of course you can. The food in the pot will not cause any harm to your refrigerator as long as the pot has cooled down. It's probably not safe to put the Teflon pot in the refrigerator if it scorching hot. That might not be safe. Mr. Know it all

Why does a refrigerator warm a room?

If you feel behind a fridge, you will feel the warm air. This warmth is from the inside of the fridge as the inside is cooled, and from the pump.


How long does it take for a water bottle to thaw?

It takes only a few seconds to make a water bottle. Liquid plastic is injected into a mold which is rapidly cooled to reveal a completed bottle minus the cap.
