Glass is often mistakenly thought of as a liquid because its molecules are arranged in a disordered manner, similar to a liquid, rather than in a regular crystalline structure like a solid. This gives glass its unique properties, such as the ability to flow slowly over time. However, glass is actually an amorphous solid, not a liquid.
Glass marbles are typically made of melted glass that is formed into spherical shapes. They can come in various colors and patterns, created by adding different pigments or layers of glass during the manufacturing process. Glass marbles are often smooth and shiny due to the way they are molded and cooled.
The sound of broken glass is often described as a "shattering" sound.
The word "convection" is often used in this context.
The difference between a shot glass and a shooter glass is small. Often a shooter glass is about 1/2″ or so taller than a standard short shot glass. Shooter glasses are slightly larger to accommodate the mixed type of shooter drinks that are served in them.

Liquid glass is a compound often made of silica, oxygen, sodium, and other components that forms a transparent, glass-like film when applied on surfaces. It is known for its waterproof, durable, and heat-resistant properties, making it useful for protecting various materials such as glass, metal, and ceramics.

Bonfire glass, also known as fire glass, is made by melting recycled glass into different shapes and sizes. The glass is then cooled quickly to create tempered pieces that can withstand high temperatures. The glass is often used in fire pits and fireplaces to create a colorful, reflective flame.
It is commonly called "volcanic glass".
These reverse processes are both part of the water cycle
Tempering is the process to add properties to the raw glass and to make it Standard or Toughened. If tempered (Heated) and cooled slowly, it becomes standard glass on the other hand if tempered and cooled rapidly, it gains different properties and becomes tough or is called toughened glass. Check the link below.
Because at present all superconductors must be super-cooled in a coolant such as liquid nitrogen to become superconductors.
It is often called vapor, or vapour.
A goblet is just a fancy glass. It usually has a cup that holds the liquid, a narrow stem, and a wide base. It is often made of cut glass and used to hold water or wine.
Glass expands when heated and contracts when cooled; however, if it is cooled or heated too quickly, it is likely that it will not contract or expand at a uniform rate, and this produces stress in parts of the glass, which can cause it to crack or even explode if the temperature change is even more abrupt. Because of this, lab glassware is often made of boron silicate glass, which is much more resistant to abrupt temperature changes than regular glass. Keep in mind though, that it is still vulnerable to the previously stated effect, though less than regular glass.
When a substance is cooled, its molecules slow down and have less energy, causing them to move closer together. This often results in the substance contracting or becoming more dense. In some cases, cooling a substance may also lead to a change in state, such as from a gas to a liquid or from a liquid to a solid.
