Want this question answered?
Soil absorbs heat much faster than water, but water does not have air in between like soil so it doesnt lose heat as fast, so water holds heat longer
Water heats faster than soil
Soil
Water absorbs and conducts radiation better. ex. electricity is a form of radiation this is false because water will take longer to absorb heat than soil but when the source of heat is gone the water will insulate more heat than the soil, therefore the water will keep heat longer than soil but the soil will heat up faster.
soil warms faster than water.

Water heats faster than soil
Soil will lose heat faster than water. This depends on the specific heat of the two substances you are comparing. Specific heat of a substance is the amount of energy required to raise its temperature by 1 degree celsius. It also describes the amount of energy the substance would have to lose to change the temperature by one degree. The specific heat of water is unusually high (1 calorie/gram of water). The specific heat of granite, which is similar to the specific heat of soil minerals, is only 0.19 calorie/gram of granite). Dry soil will lose heat more slowly than wet soil.
Soil
Someone Else:No because water has a higher specific heat than soil No because water has a higher specific heat than soil Also because water as a higher heat capacity than land. Duhh... It is not because of whatever that other person wrote. I'm just improving their answer! Yay Me!!! No.land will absorbs heat faster than water Beause the soil locks heat in

Soil is solid. Its molecules are close to one another so it heats faster. It also cools faster. Water is liquid. Molecules in liquids are farther apart so water heats more slowly............ Andre Ü
I assume that water and soil are separate, rather than a wet soil? The temperature of the dark soil would heat up faster than the water - as dark colours absorb heat.
well because the soil sits in the sin all day so then its used to light. as for water it really doesn't sit in the sun all day. so that is why soil heats up faster than water
soil warms faster than water.
sand heats faster than soil
Soil heats up faster than sand because soil is more moist and has certain chemical in it so that it is partially flammable. I hope ive helped! Love, 2016127
