Why is water bad for a clarinet mouthpiece?
Water isn't bad for a plastic or hard rubber mouthpiece. Hot water can discolor a hard rubber mouthpiece, so keep it cool. Mild soap won't hurt it either. Use a medium-soft brush on the outside and a cone-shaped mouthpiece brush in the inside. Be careful about the cork. I wrap the cork with plumbers Teflon tape before cleaning to protect it. Also be careful with the tip of the cone-shaped internal brush that you don't inadvertently chip the tip of the mouthpiece by brushing to vigorously. If it is a vintage wood mouthpiece, all bets are off!

What should you do when your mouthpiece is stuck on your trumpet without spending money?
The best way to remove a mouthpiece is with a mouthpiece puller. Most music stores will have a puller, and some will even pull mouthpieces for free. You will get a lot of other suggestions on how to pull the mouthpiece. The problem is, if you use pliers or other inappropriate tools, even with padding of some kind, you can damage the trumpet. The only relatively safe way to try it yourself is to hold the trumpet's mouthpiece tube (ahead of the mouthpiece) under the hot water tap for a couple of minutes. While doing this, hold a package of frozen vegetables, or the like, around the mouthpiece. The idea is to get the mouthpiece as cold as possible, and the pipe as warm as possible. Then, using a hot pad, try to extract the mouthpiece. This may or may not work (it does most of the time) but if it doesn't, it causes no harm to the trumpet.

Explain why placing dented table tennis ball in boiling water is one way to remove the dent in the ball?

What will happen to Styrofoam balls in boiling water?
When Styrofoam balls are placed in boiling water, they will start to melt and deform because Styrofoam is a type of plastic that softens under heat. The heat causes the air pockets in the material to expand and the balls to lose their shape, resulting in a gooey mass. Additionally, the release of toxic fumes from the melting Styrofoam can be harmful if inhaled.
