Yes, if pure water and soapy water are present at the same temperature (say 70 Celsius) then soapy water takes long time to return to the normal temperature because its Enthalpy (Energy content) is higher than normal water.

What is an example of the way a plate warmer is used?
A plate warmer is used to keep plates warm, thus keeping food warm. Plates usually don't stay warm, so having a plate warmer keeps plates and food warmer for longer.
Why soap absorb water?
Soaps are complex combinations of molecules. On the surface of the soap there are many holes and spaces between the molecules that the water can enter. There the water molecules come in and probably penetrate many layers deep into the soap, and stay there. Thus the soap expands and becomes bigger. This happens most in pure water and then less in liquids which not like water. The reason for the difference is that inside the soap there are both "hydrophilic" (water liking) and "hydrophobic" (water hating) portions of the molecules. But importantly, the hydrophilic portions are on the outside of the molecules so water can get close to the molecules. So the more like water the liquid is, the more the water can get close to the molecules and stay with them (be absorbed into the soap). When the water has other particles dissolved in it, like iced tea, Sprite or salt water, the water molecules can't get as close to the hydrophilic portions. And of course the oil molecules are repelled by the hydrophilic portions of the soap. So the answer of why soap absorbs the water is that the water molecules penetrate the soap and stay with the hydrophilic portions of the soap molecules. This happens more when the liquid is more like water.
Why is seaside warmer than plains?
At nightime, the plains cool faster than bodies of water. Therefore, it is warmer at seaside. At daytime, the plains warm faster than the sea. Therefore, it is cool to stay on the beach.
What effect does glycerin have on bubbles?
Glycerin is a type of sugar and makes particles expand more with oxygen, making a bigger bubbleANS2:Glycerin added to the soap solution slows evaporation so the soap film stays intact longer. That allows you to fill it with more air before the bubble pops.
How do you use glycerin to preserve flowers?
Glycerine replace partially water in flowers and they stay longer in good shape; the solution is 2 parts water + 1 part glycerine.

Why can you fit more fresh water drops on a nickel then soapy water drops?
Because the hydrogen molecules in water want to stay connected and once you add soap it messes with the bonds and and they don't stay bonded as strongly. Also the mass and density of the water changes when you add soap.
What does insulating a water heater do?
makes the water stay at the set temperature longer plus keeps the water heater off longer.
How do manatees stay under water longer than any other mammal?

What do shirts with thumbholes look like?
they're really cool- the sleeves are a little longer and they have a cutout where your thumb fits in- your hands stay warmer
Does soap only kill certain bacteria?
It depends on what type of soap you are talking about. Antibacterial Soap kills most of the bacteria types you can get on your hands, whereas bar soap doesn't actually kill them. Instead, it just makes the bacteria less able to stick to your hands, so when you wash your hands with water after, the bacteria just washes off. The soap acts as an emulsifier; it makes the bacteria bond with the water, so it can no longer stay on your hand. It goes down the drain, and is gone. Glad to be of help A.B.
