Steve Mould only a minute in but I assume it’s because the cold water causes the pressure inside to reduce meaning the nearly boiling water is then able to boil?

Yeah, I don't think the pressure drops due to water condensing, there isn't enough vapour in the air to make a difference in pressure. The pressure decreases because the air pressure of the actual air just decreases with temperature. Its like opposite of the old trick where you heat up a dented ping-pong ball to fix it since the air pressure increases inside it when heat is added.

4:03 Steam explosions from super heated water is even more common (& more dangerous & more violent) if the water is distilled, so there are no minerals or nothing else than H2O molecules inside. Trying this is REALLY dangerous & you will very likely burn yourself horribly, use at your own risk.
@victortitov1740

Well, apart from a chance of burning an eye out if the water decides to explode at the moment you look into the bottleneck, I wouldn't consider it very dangerous. It can cause nasty burns, but the burns aren't really a life threat.

@victortitov1740 4 года назад
Well, i doubt it is possible. Unless the bottle is plugged, of course, but that is a different kind of an explosion. The pressure the explosion can produce is limited by vapor pressure of the superheated water, which is a function of temperature. And it would take some serious overheating. But i am meaning to try that, I hope for best destruction if I cover up the surface with a layer of oil, to prevent heat loss to evaporation from surface, and potential disturbances there. I know how much of a mess the water can make in a frying pan, submerged under oil.

- You've never overheated water in a microwave? I do it all the time. It has gotten my hands with that explosion. Both hands several times and it got me good but it never actually burnt me. No blisters or burn marks of any kind. Yes it hurt like crazy but it did no damage. The pain was gone really fast which frequently happens with bad injuries. It just wasn't an injury, I sure felt injured but only for a few seconds. It was kind of like when my dad spilled boiling hot coffee on my crotch several times. That hurt like crazy too but again it didn't do damage, it just hurt.

After 1 minute she took it out an starts probing it and then, the damned egg exploded while she was watching closely. Result: a visit to E.R. and damaged vision for 2 months. The explosion was so powerful that the eyeball was covered completely with hot hardened egg. She is lucky to be completely recovered.

This video nicely illustrates the fact that heat is nothing else but the vibration of molecules. The higher the molecules move, the greater the pressure (due to repulsion between electrons). Cooling down the vapors, means slowing down the atomic movements, which lowers the pressure, allowing new bubbles to form, eventually reaching an equilibrium. Very nice experiment!

Great demo. This immediately reminded me of the "Happy Drinking Bird" toy. In that case, the felted "head" of the bird is cooled by evaporation of water, reducing pressure in the head and allowing the liquid to travel up and tip the bird.

Charles's channel had some serendipitous discoveries for me, liked, subscribed and left a comment. I'm growing oyster mushrooms for cooking and had to put them in a container because the winter air is too dry, but managing oxygen and carbon dioxide can be tricky so that they fruit and don't grow all weird. I'm going to try carbon sequestration and oxygen generation and see what happens. Yeast or manganese dioxide are too aggressive and exothermic, but I learned from Charles that tungsten works as a gentle catalyst on hydrogen peroxide that might be just enough may also try pitcher plants.

I experienced the super heating by accident when I was just trying to heat up a small amount of water in my microwave in a glass cup. I took my attention away from it for a few seconds and I heard an almighty whoosh and bang and thought I'd broken my microwave. When I opened the door the water was gone from the glass and the inside of the microwave was covered in water. It gave me an excuse to wipe the inside clean but at the same time I realised this wasn't a good idea in the future as something terrible could have happened. Thank you for helping me understand what happened :)

I'm at 0:18, but my guess is: The water is exactly at boiling temperature, but the pressure inside is a bit too high. When the cold water is poured over the bottle the air inside shrinks which reduces the pressure and makes the water boil.
@rutvikpanchal466

@AnimilesYT
@AnimilesYT 4 года назад
(at 3:13 now) Interesting. I got it mostly right, but I missed the crucial part of water evaporating which builds up the pressure. Then again, I didn't know that the water was boiling and that the cap was put on right after it which would increase the pressure. If I knew the whole setup without any explanation I might've guessed it. But I'm already a bit proud of myself that I got so much of the answer right :D

I like the way you present you videos. Many times I understand the answer from the title and picture given with it. The small clues you give in there, sometimes just framing the question correctly, gets the brain ticking and moving in the right direction. P. S. Perhaps see a therapist about your obsession on microwave ovens? 😉
