Jeff has 10 grams of water and 10 grams of vegetable oil in separate containers. both liquids have a temperature of 24°c. jeff heats both liquids over a flame for five minutes. when he’s finished, he discovers that the temperature of the oil increased more than the temperature of the water. what can jeff conclude from this experiment?
ANSWER:From this experiment, Jeff can conclude that the heat capacity of oil is lower than that of water which means that oil requires less energy per gram of liquid in order to change its temperature.
