Question

On a hot day, water in a bucket gets warmer than water in a small swimming pool. What does this observation tell you about temperature changes when different amounts of the same material are heated?

Answer 1

Answer:

Small amounts of a material are more likely to be affected by temperature, than bigger amounts of the same substance.

Explanation:

This is because of heat capacity. Heat capacity is the the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree. Water has a very high heat capacity, so the more of it there is, the harder it il be to raise its temperature.

Answer 2

Answer:

It's a similar answer but using different words i got 100% on it

Explanation:

Heat capacity is what makes small amounts of a particular substance more susceptible to temperature changes than larger amounts. Taking 1 gram of a substance and raising its temperature by 1 degree is called heat capacity. Since water is extremely hot, you'll have a harder time raising its temperature the more of it there is.
