Answer: -

The temperature change for water in the 4-liter container will be

a.half that of the 2-liter container.

Explanation: -

The increase in temperature of a substance when heat is given to it is given by the formula

Q = m x c x ΔT

Where Q is the heat supplied, m is the mass of water, c is the specific heat of water and ΔT is the change in the temperature of water.

Or ΔT = \frac{Q}{m x c}

From the formula we see that for the same amount of heat, increase is temperature is more for less amount of mass.

We know that more the volume of water, more the amount of water present and consequently more the mass of water.

Thus for the same amount of heat supplied, the temperature increases more for a lesser volume of water.

Let density of water be d.

Mass of 4 L= volume x density = 4 L x d

T 1 = ΔT for 4 L = \frac{Q}{m x c}

                  = \frac{Q}{4 L x d x c}  

Mass of 2 L= volume x density = 2 L x d

T2 = ΔT for 2 L = \frac{Q}{m x c}

                  = \frac{Q}{2 L x d x c}  

On taking ratio

\frac{T 2}{T 1} = 2

Thus the temperature change for water in the 4-liter container will be

a.half that of the 2-liter container.

if you burn a piece of wood you will feel heat see water vapor and be left with ashes how come the matter was not destroyed
Elanso [62]
The matter wasn't destroyed because albert einsteins theory of the black hole says that matter cannot be destroyed if it is burned into the same color of a black hole. this eqation proves my thesis:
