Dale had equal amounts of orange juice, milk, and water that he left in the refrigerator overnight. He took them all out and let
them sit on the counter for one hour. At the end of the hour, he measured the temperature of each liquid. The table below shows the data that he collected. Temperature of Liquids After One Hour
Liquid Temperature (°C)
orange juice 11.4
milk 11.0
water 10.5
What can Dale conclude from these measurements?
A.
Different liquids change temperatures at different rates.
B.
Different refrigerators are different temperatures.
C.
Different liquids have different flavors.
D.
Different liquids are different temperatures.
All of these liquids were the same temperature when Dale took them out of the refrigerator. They all spent the same amount of time sitting on the counter, but at the end of that time, each one was a different temperature. This means that different liquids change temperatures at different rates.
