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.
How does heat capacity makes water a good heat sink?
If a body of water has a high heat capacity, it can store more thermal energy making it a good heat sink.
Does water or steel have a higher heat capacity?
1000 g of water
Does water heat up faster than water?
no, specific heat will always be 4.16
If the water continue to heat what would be its next phase?
if the water continued to heat it will become gas
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.
What does water obsorb and realeas heat from?
Water absorb heat from sun. it releases heat into the air.
Is heat of vaporization for water is equal to heat on condensation of water?
yes
Is water a type of heat sink?
Yes! Water is a heat sink.
Why does heat dissolve in water?
Hot water merges with the cold water, and any heat is dissipated.
How does heat capacity makes water a good heat sink?
If a body of water has a high heat capacity, it can store more thermal energy making it a good heat sink.
When you heat water by which method heat travels in water?
There is more than one way to heat water, so I would not apply this to all situations, but in general, when you heat water you create convection currents which cause the hotter water to mix in with the colder water.
What holds heat longer soil or water?
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
Is evaporation heat gain or heat loss?
For what?It requires a heat gain for the water,but a heat loss for whatever the water is in contact with.
Why heat is needed to boil water?
Because heat changes the temperature of the water
What makes water retain heat?
Water retains heat because of the tides
Is water a good conductor of heat or bad?
Water is a good conductor of heat.
