Question

Argument 1

The water in the puddle that Claire observed evaporated. The highest temperature was 32°C (90°F). Since the puddle was there in the morning and gone later in the day, it must have evaporated.



Argument 2
The water in the puddle that Claire observed evaporated. Since the highest temperature was 32°C (90°F), we know that it was a warm day. When water gets hot, it can change from liquid to gas. This is called evaporation. I think the water became so warm that it became water vapor (gas), and that’s why the puddle was gone by the afternoon.
