Will the frozen water and the bottle be the same weight before and after being put in the freezer?

Yes, the frozen water and the bottle will weigh the same before and after being put in the freezer, assuming no water has been lost during the freezing process. The weight of the water remains constant as it changes from liquid to solid form. Therefore, the total weight of the bottle and its contents will remain unchanged.

An easy way to calibrate your thermometer if you put it in ice water and it just need to read what degree?

To calibrate your thermometer using ice water, fill a glass with crushed ice and add cold water until it's fully submerged. Stir the mixture and let it sit for a few minutes until the temperature stabilizes. Your thermometer should read 32°F (0°C) when placed in this ice-water mixture; if it doesn’t, you can adjust it accordingly based on the difference.

Why a plastic bottle get crushed if it is first heated by putting in hot water keeping its cap open then immediately placed inside a refrigerator by closing its cap?

When the bottle is put in the hot water the air inside it heats up and expands (the atoms become more energised and move farther away from each other). When the lid is put on and it is put in the fridge, the air contracts; the pressure inside the bottle becomes lower than the air pressure outside the bottle and it gets crushed.
