This is a cool experiment that i demonstrated to my classmates : what happens is that ...........................
A small amount of water is heated in a soda can until steaming. The can is then quickly put in cool water, mouth side down. The sudden change in temp causes a sudden change in pressure, making atmospheric pressure higher than the can pressure. Thus, the can collapses under the pressure.
Materials:
1. Any soda can
2. oven or Bunsen burner
3. beaker ( 250 ml - 500 ml)
4. room temperature
5. tongs
P.S : this is my first instructable so please rate it!

By the way, can you fix all the "u"s, please? Site policy is to use proper spelling and grammar.
The point is two-fold;
- If you care enough to post the project, you should show you care by putting the effort in to present it properly. If you don't care, don't post.
- We have a lot of international members and readers who do not speak or read English as well as you or I, if at all. We need to make our writing as clear and correct as possible so that they can understand it in translation (especially if they are using something like Babelfish).
Thank you for you efforts with this - it is more important that it seems.
