Question

If we pour very hot liquid like tea or coffee

Answer 1

Answer: Hello, I dont know if this gives much information but here. Glass comes in the insulator class of material which means it is a poor conductor of heat. when you pour a very hot liquid into a thick tumbler what happens is, the surface of glass that comes in contact with the hot liquid heats up and expands as per its coefficient of thermal expansion, while the outer layer still remain cold and does not expands (because glass is a poor conductor and does not carry heat quickly). This leads to development of thermal stresses which eventually causes cracking.
