Question 2
A student designed an experiment to investigate how emergency thermal blankets are used to
keep a person warm in a cold environment. The student heated water on a hot plate until it
reached a temperature of 100 0C. Equal amounts of the water were quickly transferred to
identical containers. One of the containers was wrapped with a layer of aluminum foil and the
other with clear plastic wrap. A thermometer was inserted into each container so that they
touched only the water. After one hour of observation, the temperature of the water in the
aluminum wrapped container was higher than the plastic wrapped container.

Based on the specific heat data, is the observation consistent with predicted results? Why or why
not?
Yes, it is consistent because the plastic wrapped container should have a
lower temperature after one hour because it would transfer heat slower.
No, it is not consistent because the aluminum wrapped container should
have a lower temperature after one hour because it would transfer heat
faster.
No, it is not consistent because the plastic wrapped container should have a
higher temperature after one hour because it would transfer heat faster.
Yes, it is consistent because the aluminum wrapped container should have a
higher temperature after one hour because it would transfer heat slower.

Question 3
In past times, when there was no electricity, on a cold winter night, people used to bring a hot object to bed.

Based on the data, which hot object do you predict could keep you warmer throughout the night and
why?
0.450
4.184
Either object A or B will release the same amount of heat because they are
at the same temperature and will keep me warm all night.
Question 4
Object A will cool off slowly because it is a solid with low specific heat and
will keep me warm all night.
Object B will take more time to release heat because it has absorbed more
heat, so it will keep me warm all night.

Based on the table, which substance would be the BEST conductor of thermal energy and why?
Object B will cool off too fast because it is a liquid with high specific heat,
so it will make me feel cold in the middle of the night.
chromium; because it is a transition metal with the highest specific heat
value
copper, because it is a transition metal and is used in plumbing for hot water
lines
iron; because it is a transition metal that is widely used in construction
