Water does not attract heat. Water holds heat, water transfers heat from hot to cold, water changes state. ---- Well, heat isn't really the correct term. Water attracts thermal energy. Each substance has a different Specific Heat Capacity. Water has a Specific heat Capacity of 4186 J/kg. That means that it takes 4186 J/kg of energy in order to make one kg of water go up by one degree.

Water is bad conductor of heat due to its chemical composition. Water contains oxygen and hydrogen both of which are poor conductors of heat.
Do solids dissolve more quickly in cold or warm water?
Solids dissolve a lot more quickly in hot water because the heat breaks up the particles more quickly, where as the cold would make the particles stay stronger/closer together :)
What household materials attract heat?
I do not know but i do know that anything dark attracts heat
Why does dry ice sublimate so fast in water?
Dry ice sublimates quickly in water because water is both relatively dense and has a high specific heat, which means that a relatively small volume of it can transfer a larger amount of heat.
Does water absorb heat quickly?
no
Why does water heat up quickly if the heat is applied from the bottom?
Heat goes up
Why water is poor conductor of heat?

Does Earth heat faster than water?
correct, and it also loses its heat more quickly.
What material will boil water the fastest?

What does a car heat up quickly?
Check your water level in your radiator.
Which dissipates heat more quickly land or water?
Land heats and cools faster than water.
Why does water not heat up or cool as quickly as air?
Because the specific heat of water is very high. In fact, water has about 1400 times more heat carrying capacity than air.
Why does darker clothing attract more heat?
It does not attract more heat is reflects less back.
Does the dry ice disappear more quickly in air or in water?
