Question

Nick hypothesizes that wax has a higher melting point than chocolate. How can Nick test his hypothesis?

A.
Heat equal masses of wax and chocolate and measure their temperatures when they start to melt.
B.
Measure the volume and weight of samples of wax and chocolate and calculate their densities.
C.
Heat samples of wax and chocolate and use a stopwatch to time how long it takes until they start to melt.
D.
Use Mohs Hardness Scale to test how easily wax and chocolate can be scratched.

Answer 1

I would say a

Step-by-step explanation:

Density and hardness have little to do with melting points and while option c seems correct it is less specific than option a and in science specifics and detail is very important
