What else can I help you with?
Is glass a conductor or a insulators?
Glass is an electrical insulator. But glass more readily conducts heat.
Will rubbing a silk cloth on glass cause electrons to move to the cloth?
Yes, rubbing a silk cloth on glass cause electrons to move to the cloth. As a result, glass rod acquires positive charge and silk acquires negative charge.
How does heat expand a glass?
When heat is applied to glass, the glass absorbs the heat energy causing its molecules to move faster and spread apart. This increase in molecular motion results in the expansion of the glass material, causing it to expand in all directions.
Does glass hold electrons tightly?
Glass is an insulator, which means it does not conduct electricity well. This suggests that electrons are held tightly within the structure of glass, making it difficult for them to move and carry electrical current.
When glass breaks how fast do the cracks move?
This can be very slow. Consider the windshield of a car. An initial crack can spread over the period of a few months if not more.
How do glass sponges move?
no
Does glass move away from magnet?
No! there's no magnet attraction between glass and metal, I don't think the glass wont do anything.
If glass is covalently bonded are the electrons free to move and how is this related to the electrical conductivity of glass?
In glass, the electrons are not free to move due to the covalent bonds holding the atoms together. This lack of free-moving electrons leads to glass being an insulator with low electrical conductivity.
What does it mean if a glass smashes for no apparent reason?
There may be a small possibility that the glass was moved by poltergeist activity. When the glass was moved, the move put the glass in an unstable position, causing it to fall and break.
When you move a glass in your hand about its axis why doesn't the water in it move?
Only a small layer of the molecules at the glass-water interface move with the glass. Otherwise no force is being applied to the other water molecules and objects at rest remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force. This is often referred to as the "No slip condition".
Does glass contract on cooling?
Yes, glass does contract upon cooling. When heated, glass expands as its molecules gain energy and move further apart. Conversely, as it cools, the molecules lose energy, causing them to move closer together and the glass to contract. This property is typical of most materials, although the rate and extent of contraction can vary based on the type of glass and its composition.
Six glasses of which 1st three are full of juice and remaing three are empty then move one glass to make full glass and empty glass alternate?
Pick up 2nd glass, pour its contents into 5th glass, return 2nd glass to its place.
What will a snail move fastest over?
A flat surface of wet glass.
Which fractures tend to occur first when a pane of glass is struck?
The glass fractures outward from the point of impact. The particles that make up the glass break apart and move upward.
Can a magnet move a paperclip inside a glass of water?
Yes. Neither the glass nor the water shields the paperclipfrom the field of the magnet.
What happens to light that moves from glass to air when its angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle?
It does not move from glass to air but undergoes internal refraction. That is, it is refracted back into the glass at the interface.
Is glass a conductor or a insulators?
Glass is an electrical insulator. But glass more readily conducts heat.
