Question

What has more thermal energy, 200 g of water at 40 degrees Celsius or 1000 g of water at 30 degrees Celsius

Answer 1

Answer: 1000 g of water at 30°C

Explanation: Heat or thermal energy is directly proportional to the mass of an object, which implies that the more massive the object the greater thermal energy or heat it can absorb. Since the amount of matter present is much more enough to absorb heat energy.
