प्रश्न
Explain, why are soft drink bottles not completely filled?

उत्तर
On lowering the temperature below 4°C, water expands due to its anomalous behaviour. So, if soft drink bottles are completely filled, then they may burst and cause accident. As a result, soft drink bottles are not completely filled.
