Question

Jasmine adds varying amounts of ice to samples of water. Which conclusion can she draw from her experiment?(1 point)
Responses

As water temperature decreases, the water molecules’ kinetic energy increases.​​​​​​​
As water temperature decreases, the water molecules’ kinetic energy increases. ​​​​​​​

As ice added decreases, the water temperature decreases.
As ice added decreases, the water temperature decreases.

As water temperature increases, the water molecules’ kinetic energy decreases.
As water temperature increases, the water molecules’ kinetic energy decreases.

As ice added increases, the change in water temperature increases.

Answer 1

The most appropriate conclusion Jasmine can draw from her experiment is:

**As ice added increases, the change in water temperature increases.**

This conclusion indicates that the more ice added to the water, the more the temperature of the water decreases, which is consistent with observations of how ice absorbs heat from water as it melts.
