The space between the top of the water and the lid of a kettle serves a functional purpose by allowing steam to escape during the boiling process. This prevents pressure buildup, which could lead to dangerous situations or spills if the kettle were to boil over. Additionally, the gap helps maintain an even temperature and prevents the water from splashing out when the kettle reaches a rolling boil. Overall, this design enhances safety and efficiency while boiling water.

How is a case of a kettle made?

Electric tea kettles are made predominately of steel, iron, silver, aluminum, or a combination of plastic and metal. High-grade steel is typically used for the housing of all-metal kettles. Heat resistant plastics, such as low density polyethylene (LDPE), polypropylene (PP), or polystyrene (PS), comprise the upper housings of the kettles in some models with metal enclosures on the bases that contain the heating elements.Add.

Probably so science teachers can ask the question - the answer to which is that shiny surfaces are poor emitters of infra red radiation, thus minimising heat loss from the kettle and improving the rate of heat at which it heats the water for your cup of tea ( in the UK) or coffee (U.S)


What fills the space in between gas molecules Is it just empty space?

The space in between gas molecules is not "just empty space." It is filled with constantly moving and colliding molecules. Gas molecules are in constant motion, so even though there may be more space between them compared to liquids or solids, the space is not truly empty.
