Equal masses of aluminum and lead are heated in boiling water. The metals are then placed in separate beakers containing equal volumes of room temperature water. The temperature change in each amount ...

A partially evacuated, sealed glass tube containing copper (I) tetraiodomercurate (II) is immersed in a beaker of boiling water. The compound changes from a bright red to dark brown at 80oC. When ...

In this month's Weather Experiment Wednesday, we are looking at how pressure can change the boiling point of water. We took two identical beakers with the same temperature water inside. One beaker we ...

A single drop of solvent swirls like a tiny dancer atop a beaker of water, gradually jettisoning away little round bits of itself until nothing remains. Some who saw it thought it looked like a ...
