Water has a high specific heat, meaning that water will warm up or cool down more than the pan on the stove.

The pan will heat up more because of its metal. Metal is VERYY heat concentrated meaning the water its in, will heat up too.

Answer:

No,

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Specific heat is the amount of the energy that is needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of water by 1 degree C. As its a unit of measurement the high heat capacity means that water can hold more thermal energy at a lower mass or lower temperature. Thus specific heat capacity of water and ice is different.
