What will happen to the air pressure inside the bottle?
When air is heated it expands and some of it escapes out the bottle. When the matches go out, the air inside the bottle cools and contracts (takes up less space), thus creating a lower air pressure area inside the bottle than outside. The air molecules on the outside of the bottle push the egg into the bottle.
What happens to the pressure inside the bottle when it is heated?
As the temperature of a gas increases, the volume of the gas increases. Therefore, as the air inside the bottle is heated, the increased volume increases the pressure. The pressure the gas exerts on the inside of the bottle is greater than the pressure exerted on the bottle by the outside air.
How much pressure can a bottle hold?
A: A 2-liter plastic bottle will easily hold 100 psi without rupturing. Bottles of this size, that are in good condition, start rupturing at about 130 psi. Some go as high as 170 psi before they rupture.
How many co2 can a bottle hold?
A typical American 12-oz bottle is good to about 3.5 volumes, but I wouldn’t trust an Anchor bottle to that pressure (their bottles are remarkably light-weight), and some can handle 4.0 volumes. I found that a good ROT is 195-200g – if the bottle is heavier than this, it’ll be OK with higher pressures.
How much pressure does it take to break a glass bottle?
Glass can withstand 1MM psi in compression, and only 100K in tension… and that’s when the surface is very smooth. Scratches dramatically reduce the tensile strength of glass. So is the bottle had a “waist” feature, the suction within the bottle would put the glass in tension, and it would shatter fairly quickly.
Can you make rain in a bottle?
When you pressurize the soda bottle by pumping air in, the air molecules collide with each other and warm the bottle. Releasing the pressure causes the water vapor to condense quickly, forming a cloud.
