It is desirable to have water a few degrees colder than room temperature when the initial temperature was taken for accuracy to be achieved. This is affected by the amount of heat energy which escapes the surroundings when the water is above room temperature.

∙ 12y agoit is so that you can measure the change in temperature for the reaction eg if it starts at 20 degrees and finishes at 30 degrees then you know it has increased by 10 degrees but if you don't measure it at the start you know that it will be 30 degrees if you measure it at the end but you will not know the change of temperature

When the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit is it warmer or colder that the freezing temperature of water?
The freezing temperature of water is 0 degrees celsius or 32 degrees fahrenheit so it is colder than the freezing temperature of water.
Which temperature is 20 degrees colder than 44 F?
If the temperature is 44F and the temperature drops 20 degrees, the temperature would be 24. Subtract the temperature drop from the starting temperature.
Is -4 degrees bigger then -2 degrees?
Temperature is said to be hot or cold, not large or small. So, -4 degrees is colder than -2 degrees.
What happens to the temperature as you increase in altitude in the troposphere?
It keeps getting colder. (to about -70 degrees F).
Which is colder -10 Celsius or -20 Celsius?
-10 F is much colder than -10C.
When the temperature is 0 degrees Fahrenheit is it warmer or colder that the freezing temperature of water?
The freezing temperature of water is 0 degrees celsius or 32 degrees fahrenheit so it is colder than the freezing temperature of water.
Which temperature is colder 25 degrees celsius or 19 degrees celsius?
yes its obvious that 19degree is colder
Which temperature is 40 degrees colder than 86 degrees?
46 degrees Fahrenheit .
In the winter the high temperature is 9 degrees colder than the summer low of -31f and the winter low temperature is 54 degrees colder than that what is the winter low temperature in Antarctica?
-94
Which temperature is 20 degrees colder than 78 degrees f?
58
Is a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius colder than 40 degrees Fahrenheit?
No, as 20 degrees Celsius is about normal room temperature. Temperature Fahrenheit = Temperature Celsius(1.80) + 32
What temperature is colder 600C or -100C?
-100 degrees c is colder because it's below 0 degrees c. 600 derees c is above.
Which is colder 36 degrees Fahrenheit or 38 degrees Fahrenheit?
The higher the temperature the larger the reading therefore 36F is colder than 38F
Is -81 degrees Fahrenheit colder then -61 degrees?
-20
Which temperature is 20 degrees colder than 44 F?
If the temperature is 44F and the temperature drops 20 degrees, the temperature would be 24. Subtract the temperature drop from the starting temperature.
What temperature is colder than -7.2 degrees Fahrenheit?
-7.3F is colder.Maybe -7.3 degrees Fahrenheit
Which is colder 40 Celsius or 0 Celsius?
0 degrees Celsius is a colder temperature than 40 degrees Celsius. 0 degrees Celsius is the freezing level for water. Any positive number above 0 degrees Celsius is a warmer temperature.
