The temperature of a glass of water in space would depend on whether or not it was in sunlight, in contact with another object, or floating freely in darkness. After water vaporizes in a vacuum, the vapor could condense into ice or it could remain a gas.
The critical point of liquid water is at 650°K (with a much higher pressure than you care to create in space: 22MPa), which is only 450° above the sublimation temperature. But the water should be cooled by 540° to provide enough heat to evaporate completely.
30 gru 2016 · If you brought liquid water into outer space, would it freeze or would it boil? The vacuum of space is awfully different from what we’re used to here on Earth.
11 sty 2014 · For instance, if you took some warm water up to a very high elevation, it would start to boil, and become a gas! The higher up you took it, the lower and lower your boiling point would be.
Water poured into space (outside of a spacecraft) would rapidly vaporize or boil away. In space, where there is no air, there is no air pressure. As air pressure drops, the temperature needed to boil water becomes lower. That's why water boils much faster on a mountaintop than it does at sea level.
23 maj 2019 · Does water still feel wet in outer space? Does it float or does it fall? With a little help from our friends at NASA we will help you understand exactly how water behaves in outer space. Continue reading to learn more.
29 cze 2009 · The water finishes boiling and becomes a gas, the gas freezes (or desublimates), and ice crystals -- a.k.a. snow -- results! And that's what happens to water in space.
