When a balloon is placed in cold water, the air inside the balloon loses thermal energy to the colder surrounding water. As the air molecules lose energy, they slow down and move closer together, resulting in a decrease in pressure inside the balloon. This decrease in pressure causes the balloon to deflate.

Why an inflated balloon is burst when kept in the freezer?

When a balloon is placed in the freezer, the air inside it contracts and decreases in volume due to the cold temperatures. The rubber of the balloon becomes less flexible in the cold, making it so the balloon can't stretch to accommodate the reduced air volume inside. This increase in pressure causes the balloon to burst.


Why does an inflated balloon kept under the sun burst after some time?

The heat from the sun causes the air molecules inside the balloon to expand, increasing the pressure within the balloon. If the pressure becomes too high, the balloon will burst to release the excess pressure.


What happens to the mercury level when the cold thermometer is kept in a hot tub of water?

The mercury level in a thermometer placed in a hot tub of water will rise as the temperature of the water increases. This is because the volume of liquid mercury expands with higher temperatures, causing it to climb up the measuring scale in the thermometer.


Why balloon kept in sun burst after some time?

pressure x volume divided by temperature is a constant (Boyle's Law), or PV/T = constant. Since pressure does not change, as temperature increases so must the volume, so the balloon expands


Why is an apple is taken out from a refrigerator and kept outside for sometime becomes wet with water?

When an apple is taken out from the refrigerator and placed outside, it undergoes a process called condensation. The cold apple coming into contact with the warmer air causes moisture in the air to condense on its surface, resulting in water droplets forming on the apple.

Sodium is put into a large bowl of cold water?

Sodium catches fire at room temperature. So it is kept in bowl of cold water.


If you lived in an area with very cold winters should water be kept in you outdoor pool all winter Why or why not?

No, water should not be kept in your pool all winter. When it gets cold enough, the water will freeze. When water freezes, it expands. So when the water in your pool freezes and expands your pool will be ruined.

Why is the water so cold in the room of frigidarium?

The water was cold so that it would close up pores that would have been opened up by the hotter water of the tepidarium and caldarium. It was sometimes kept cold using snow.


Can water spoil in the refrigerator?

Water can be kept indefinitely in the refrigerator. The darkness will prevent algae growth, and the cold will inhibit mold. If not kept in a tightly sealed container, it can evaporate with time.


What do you do if your cold water white cloud fish is pregnant?

White Cloud Mountain Minnows (Tanichthys albonubes) are a TROPICAL fish and should be kept at around 64F to 75F. Although they are very tough and can stand being kept in cold water conditions their life span is greatly reduced by being kept at too cold temperatures. They are egg layers and so can not get pregnant.


Can a guppie live with a goldfish?

A guppie is a tropical fish and should be kept in an aquarium with other tropical fish, a goldfish is kept in a bowl or tank in cold water - the 2 cannot be kept together because of the different in the temperature of the water


Can algra eaters br put with goldfish?

I do not know of any Algae eaters that can live in cold water . Goldfish are cold water fish. So unless you can find some species of cold water algae eater the answer is no they can not be kept together successfully.
