Note from the author:

Designed as post lab questions for a lab where a can is heated and then dunked into a cold water bath top down, which typically results in either a lot of water being sucked into the can or a rapid implosion of the can.

Draw a molecular level representation of what was happening to the gas molecules in and around the can as it was heated.

Draw a molecular level representation of what was happening to the gas molecules in and around the can right before the can changed after being dunked in the ice water

One group's can did not deform, however as they pulled it out of the water a ton of water poured out of the opening.
Draw arrows showing the forces that explain why there was so much water in the can

Draw a molecular level representation of what would happen to the gas molecules in and around the can if you dunked the can in the ice water bath right side up instead of upside down.
