Look at the two containers of water and their starting conditions shown above.

How will the temperatures of the water in the containers compare if an equal amount of heat is absorbed by both containers of water without boiling?

A.Both water temperatures will increase by the same amount.
B.Both water temperatures will increase, but Container A's will increase more.
C.Both water temperatures will decrease, but Container B's will decrease more.
D.Both water temperatures will increase, but Container B's will increase more.

Respuesta :

the answer is D because if an equal amount of heat is absorbed by the water in the containers, both water temperatures will increase, but Container B's will increase more.

When heat is absorbed by a substance, the substance's temperature increases. The amount that the temperature increases depends on the volume of the substance—the greater the volume, the less the temperature increases.

The water in Containers A and B has the same temperature, but Container A's water has a greater volume. If an equal amount of heat is added to both containers, Container A's water temperature will not increase as much as Container B's.



THE ANSWER IS

D;Both water temperatures will increase, but Container B's will increase more.
