Iceberg.

Heat is anything above absolute zero (-273 degrees C).

It is the total energy of molecular motion in a substance while temperature is a measure of the average energy of molecular motion in a substance. Heat energy depends on the speed of the particles, the number of particles (the size or mass), and the type of particles in an object. Temperature does not depend on the size or type of object. For example, the temperature of a small cup of water might be the same as the temperature of a large tub of water, but the tub of water has more heat because it has more water and thus more total thermal energy.

The iceberg is a huge object with a lot of mass or volume than a pot of water.

Therefore due to the massive size of the iceberg the amount of heat (even though it is not as 'hot' as the boiling water) is greater.

the iceberg has more heat because heat is a different concept than temperature(sorry, i don't know how to explain this ) i think that for find the heat you can multiplate the mass by the temperature

When heat is considered as the movement of molecules, I guess that they start moving as soon as they've left the absolute 0 (Kelvin).

This means that an iceberg has an amount of heat similar as the average heat capacity of water from 0 to 273 K times the total weight of the iceberg.

The heat in a cup of boiling water can be calculated in a similar way. Average heat capacity of water from 0 to 373 K times the weight of one cup.

If you ask me, the amount of heat in an iceberg would be much higher.

That depends on the temperature of the boiling point:-

An Iceberg has a greater temperature than the boiling point of Nitrogen.

An Iceberg has a lesser temperature than the boiling point of Lead.

Can a large iceberg have more heat than a cup of boiling water?

yes


Which contains more heat an iceberg or a pot of boiling water?

"More temperature" is incorrect grammar. A pot of boiling water (probably; it depends on the pressure) has a highertemperature than an iceberg, if that's what you were trying to ask. However, unless it's quite small, the iceberg likely has more heat energy simply by virtue of having a much larger volume.


Does boiling water have more heat than a match flame?

Yes, the boiling water has more heat than the match flame.


Which can transfer more heat a cup of boiling water or a cup of tap water?

A cup of boiling water since it has higher temperature. Note that heat transfer depends more on the temperature.


Does it take more heat to heat water or to boil water?

It takes more heat to boil water than to simply heat water. Unless the water is already at its boiling point.


Which can more transfer heat a cup of boiling water or 1 basin of tap water?

A cup of boiling water since it has higher temperature. Note that heat transfer depends more on the temperature.

Can carrots be done more quickly in vigorously boiling water than in water that is gently boiling?

yes..because of the heat transfer is more in vigorous boiling point.


Why does steam give you more burns that water?

steam is the gaseous transformation that takes place on heating water to its boiling point.Steam will give you more burn than the water boiling at 100 c as it has the latent heat of vapourisation in addition to the heat of fusion.Basically it has more heat content in the steam state than boiling water state.


What has more heat energy an iceberg or hot tea?

It surely depends on how big the iceberg is ,as a really big iceberg contains a lot of thermal energy and much more than a liter of hot water.


Which has more heat energy the ice sculpture or a lighted match?

First note that "thermal energy" is a term that is long since obsolete. The correct term is "Internal Energy". "Thermal energy" was a term that was in use when people thought of energy as being some kind of fluid called "caloric" that was transferred between things at different temperatures. With that said: an iceberg has more internal energy when compared to a hot cup of coffee mainly due to the variance in size. Total internal energy is not necessarily determined by the presence of heat but the mass of the molecules present.


Why is the latent heat of vapourization of steam is more than that of boiling water?

Because steam is hotter than boiling water.
