You don't push air into Styrofoam.
Styrofoam is "foamed" using a liquid blowing agent that is mixed into the liquid styrene resin before molding, this liquid blowing agent then evaporates forming bubbles in the styrene.
This blowing agent used to be a freon, but as these can damage the ozone layer they have switched to using HCFC or HFC blowing agents.
The bubbles in styrofoam are filled with the gaseous form of the blowing agent, not air!
What else can I help you with?
What makes styrofoam a good insulator?
Styrofoam is a good insulator because it has tiny air pockets that are warmed by the air around it. Once the air's around it temperature drops the styrofoam gives off the heat stored in the pockets of air.
Why does super glue melt strofoam?
Because styrofoam is full of air bubbles and the actual plastic is very thin.
How do you clear air bubbles from the manometer tubes?
To clear air bubbles from manometer tubes, you can gently tap the tubes to try and dislodge the bubbles. You can also try adding more liquid to the tubes to push the air bubbles out. If these methods do not work, you may need to empty the tubes and refill them with liquid.
What kinds of bubbles are there?
There are soap bubbles, carbon dioxide bubbles in carbonated drinks, air bubbles trapped in ice, and bubbles of gas released during fermentation processes like in beer or bread-making.
Why should you try to avoid trapping air bubbles when making a wet mount slide?
So that you wouldn't mistaken those air bubbles as parasite eggs or other structures.
How long will it styrofoam float?
Styrofoam will float indefinitely because it is less dense than water, making it buoyant. This is due to its composition of trapped air bubbles within the material, preventing it from sinking.
What makes styrofoam a good insulator?
Styrofoam is a good insulator because it has tiny air pockets that are warmed by the air around it. Once the air's around it temperature drops the styrofoam gives off the heat stored in the pockets of air.
What is a Gamestop softcard?
It comes with screen protectors, and used to push air bubbles out.
Why does super glue melt strofoam?
Because styrofoam is full of air bubbles and the actual plastic is very thin.
Would glass iron wood or Styrofoam have the lowest thermal conductivity?
Styrofoam would have the lowest thermal conductivity among these materials. It is a good insulator because it is made up of mostly trapped air bubbles that restrict the transfer of heat. Glass, iron, and wood have higher thermal conductivities compared to Styrofoam.

What makes bubbles break?
what makes bubbles brake is the presur of the air moving up and the air presur moving down compackting the bubble airgo making it pop.
Why should you try to avoid trapping air bubbles when making a wet mount slide?
So that you wouldn't mistaken those air bubbles as parasite eggs or other structures.
Removing Air bubbles?
To remove the air bubbles, open the stopcock and the air bubbles will remove
What is the property called that separates styrofoam balls?
The property that separates styrofoam balls is their buoyancy. Styrofoam balls are lightweight and have air trapped inside, making them less dense than water. This causes them to float on the surface of water, separating them from denser materials that sink.
Why is it important to eliminate air bubbles from the slide of the microscope?
Air bubbles in a slide can cause distortions in the image, or cause things to move around when they shouldn't. You will not get an optimal viewing with bubbles in the image in most situations.
