Question 26

Hot water is poured-into a thick glass and a thin glass separately. Which of the
following predictions and explanations is correct?
Prediction
Explanation
A.
Thick glass will break more easily
than thin glass
Because the inner wall of thick glass
expands faster than the outer wall
B.
Thick glass will break more easily
than thin glass
Because the wall of thick glass
receives more collisions by the water
particles
C.
Thick glass and thin glass are
equally breakable
Because both the thick glass and the
thin glass are made of glass
D
Thin glass will break more easily
than thick glass
Because the thin wall of thin glass
cannot take in too much heat

Question illustration
  1. Thick glass breaks more easily; its inner wall expands faster than the outer wall.
  2. Thick glass breaks more easily; its wall receives more collisions by water particles.
  3. Both are equally breakable because both are glass.
  4. Thin glass breaks more easily because its thin wall cannot take in too much heat.
