recall that temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a substance. both ethanol and water had the same amount of
Igoryamba

The same amount of added energy in water not increase its temperature as much as in ethanol because of temperature difference.

What is temperature?
The physical concept of temperature expresses in numerical form how hot or cold something is. A thermometer is used to determine temperature. Thermometers are calibrated using a variety of temperature scales, which historically defined various reference points as well as thermometric substances. The most popular scales are the Celsius scale, also known as centigrade, with the unit symbol °C, the Fahrenheit scale (°F), as well as the Kelvin scale (K), with the latter being primarily used for scientific purposes. One of the seven units inside the International System of Units is the kelvin (SI).

The average kinetic energy of all the atoms or molecules that make up a substance is how we define temperature in chemistry. A substance's constituent particles do not all possess the same kinetic energy. The distribution of the particles' kinetic energy at any particular moment can be used to describe it.
