Large bodies of water tend to resist large temperature changes due to water’s ____ which allow it to
|
|
heat of vaporization; store cold air
|
|
|
heat of vaporization; keep the water from evaporating
|
|
|
high specific heat; reflect heat
|
|
|
high specific heat; absorb and store heat.

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Because of its high heat capacity, water can minimize changes in temperature. For instance, the specific heat capacity of water is about five times greater than that of sand. The land cools faster than the sea once the sun goes down, and the slow-cooling water can release heat to nearby land during the night.
Detailed explanation-2: -The hydrogen bonds between water molecules give water the ability to hold heat better than many other substances. As the temperature rises, the hydrogen bonds between water continually break and reform, allowing for the overall temperature to remain stable, although increased energy is added to the system.
