When a bottle is cold why does the outside get wet after you leave it for a while?

This is due to condensation. The cold surface of the bottle condenses the water vapor in the air (humidity) into liquid water.

What are some fun weather experiments to try when it is really cold outside?
A good experiment to try, when it's really cold outside, is to buy a bottle of bubbles. Blow the bubbles outside and see what happens to them.
Why do water droplets form outside the bottle?
Condensation - The surface of the bottle and the air just above it will be cool enough to allow condensation of the water vapor in the air onto the bottle's surface.
Why as you drink an ice cold beverage on a warm day the outside of the bottle becomes wet?
Your water bottle contains some air along with the water. The air is warm when you leave the house but it cools off outside. Cooling air contracts. Since the water bottle is sealed air-tight, no new air can get in. The contracting cooling air inside the bottle exerts less internal pressure on the bottle, so the external pressure which remains constant (24 pounds per square inch) will then partially collapse the bottle.

Does the heating on a bottle affect the volume of a gas?

Why does an ice cold beverage on a warm day the outside of the glass or bottle becomes wet while the contents warm rapidly?
because it is hot outside so the bottle sweats as it absorbs heat
Where is an example of where condensation occurs?
Did you ever take a cold bottle of coke out of the refrigerator on a hot summer day? Did you ever leave that same bottle of coke on the counter? What did you notice? You noticed water dropplets forming on the outside of the bottle. That is "condensation" when something cold meets something warm. If you go outside on a very cold winter day and breath...your breath comes out looking like steam...that is condensation. When you exhale on a cold window the water dropplets that form on the window - that is condensation

How long can you leave your kids outside in the snow?
You can leave your kids outside in the snow for a while to play depending on the temperature and their age. A good way to make sure they're safe playing in the cold is to make sure they're dressed as warmly as possible.
