Entropy is the measure of disorderness.

Hot water --> more energy --> less stable --> more disorderness (than Cold water).

Therefore, Entropy of Hot water is greater than that of Cold water.

What has a higher density cold or hot water?

Cold water has a greater density than hot water.


What has a higher rate of evaporation hot water or cold water?

A higher rate of evaporation has hot water.


When you add hot water to cold water the cold water gets warm because of what?

That would be convection. Thermal diffusion of energy from a high concentration to a low concentration. Depending on the application or context, the loss of energy can be reffered to as entropy as well.


Why does Hot water extinguishes fire more effectively than cold water?

Hot Water extinguishes more effectively than cold water as it has a higher specific heat capacity than cold water.


Is hot water less dense than cold water?

Yes, because the higher the temperature, the faster and more spread out the molecules, therefore making hot water less dense than cold water.


Do hot and cold water molecules move at the same speed?

Hot water molecules move a lot faster han cold water molecules because they have a higher kinetic energy due to the heat.


Does jelly dissolve better in hot water or cold water?

Jelly dissolves faster in hot water because water molucules move faster at a higher temperature.


Why does sugar dissolve in cold water?

hot water because sugar has the abilty to melt due to higher temperatures it will dissovle in cold water it just take longer


Is water hot or cold?

Water can be hot or cold if you want


Why does sugar dissolve quicker in warm water than cold?

The reason this happens has to do with entropy. Entropy means that everything in the universe is trying to move towards disorganization (in this case dissociation). Raising the temperature increases the entropy in the water and therefore helps sugar and other crystals dissolve


Which evaporates faster hot water or cold water?

Hot water. Higher temperature means more kinetic energy, and energy is needed to change phases from liquid to gas (evaporation.)


Is 65 c hot or cold?

It is hot, higher temperature is hot and lower is cold. Cold temperature is from 0c to about 10c.
