Brent and carry know that materials that conduct heat well tend to warm up quickly. they set up an experiment to compare how well four different materials conduct heat. they place a sample of each material on a hot plate and put a piece of wax on top, as shown below. brent predicts that sample 1 will heat up the fastest, causing its wax to melt first. which of the following is a different, reasonable prediction that carry could make?

answer; natural resources;

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
