Can you reuse dry ice?
If you mean the dry ice bomb as in putting dry ice in a bottle and sealing it, and then having it explode, then no. The bottle and the dry ice cannot be reused from the Dry Ice Bomb. The reasoning is that the Dry Ice would have already used enough of its fuel to try to explode the bottle that no fuel is left to explode another, and the bottle would be ripped in half by the Dry Ice inside, so the bottle cannot be reused.
When is expanding ice harmful?
Most of the time it is a good thing that ice expands. But sometimes water may get into cracks in streets and roads. If the water freezes, the pressure caused by the expanding ice can break the pavement. Then the holes and cracks are expensive to repair. And if we put a full bottle of soda into the freezer to get cold quick and then and then forget about it, we may find the expanding ice has shattered the bottle and ruined our treat.
How do you unfreeze a drain for a washing machine?
Raise the room temperature, or place a hot water bottle inside the machine, and allow the ice to melt in the pipes. Hopefully, the plastic pipes will take the expansion from the ice and not spring a leak.
Does whiskey break down plastic water bottles?
Whiskey does not break down plastic water bottles. However, storing whiskey in plastic bottles for prolonged periods may affect the taste and quality of the whiskey due to the interaction between the alcohol and the plastic. It is generally recommended to store whiskey in glass bottles to maintain its flavor and integrity.
Why does plastic water bottles melt when you put hot water in it?
Plastic water bottles can melt when hot water is placed in them due to the low melting point of the plastic material used to make the bottles, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). When the hot water comes into contact with the plastic, it can cause the polymer chains in the plastic to break, leading to melting or deformation of the bottle. It is important to use bottles specifically designed to withstand hot liquids to avoid this issue.
Why a frozen corked bottle full of water break?
When water freezes, it expands in volume, creating pressure within the container. If this pressure exceeds what the container can withstand, such as a glass or plastic bottle, it can cause the container to break, especially if it is corked as the cork does not allow the ice expansion to occur without breaking the bottle.
What happens when you put a bottle of water in the freezer?
As the water in the bottle freezes and turns into ice, it expands. This expansion can cause the bottle to deform or even burst. It's generally not recommended to freeze a bottle of water, especially if it's a plastic bottle.
Why does the balloon blow up when it is on a plastic bottle with dry ice and water in it?
the vapors of the dry ice fill up the ballon with gas
Why does a plastic bottle filled completely with water and capped tightly burst open when left in the freezer overnight?
The water expanded when turned into ice. As there was no air space in the bottle, the plastic failed under the pressure.
How does plastic bottle caps effect your environment?
because they arnt biodegradable so wont break down.
Can you freeze an open bottle of lemon juice?
I would not freeze it in the bottle. Instead, portion it out in an ice cube tray. When frozen, store the cubes in a plastic bag.
How do you make a plastic bottle boat?
you get a plastic bottle
Which type of reusable water bottle aluminum or plastic can keeps ice water coldest?
Apparantely plastic keeps ice water colder because since aluminum water bottles absorbs the cold and the plastic doesnt so pretty much it keeps colder :)
What kind of shadow does a plastic bottle create?
A plastic bottle shape.
Can you use a plastic bottle for egg in a bottle?
No, because the plastic is flammable.
Is drinking from plastic bottle bad for you?
Is it bad for you to reuse a plastic bottle
Microwave frozen water bottle?
As water freezes and becomes ice it expands in volume. If a bottle is half-filled with water and then frozen, the bottle should remain intact because the volume of air in the bottle will contract as the water/ice expands and so the airspace will accommodate the final volume of the ice. If the bottle is completely filled with water and then frozen, the bottle will most likely break because there is no airspace to 'absorb' the expansion of the water/ice. As the freezing is a relatively slow process, the bottle will not explode, but will in all likelyhood crack and may break apart.
