Sample Initial Temperature (°C) Final Temperature (°C) Amount of Ice Added (grams) 1 20.2 16.0 60 2 48.1 44.2 59.9 3 6.1 1.0 71.1 4 14.6 3.3 122.6 A student adds ice to several samples of water. The results are shown in the table. Which conclusion can be drawn from the results? (1 point) Responses As the amount of ice added increases, the change in temperature increases. As the amount of ice added increases, the change in temperature increases. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases. As the amount of ice added decreases, the temperature decreases. As the amount of ice added decreases, the temperature decreases. As the temperature decreases, the kinetic energy of the sample increases.
1 answer
The correct conclusion that can be drawn from the results is:
As the amount of ice added increases, the change in temperature increases.
This conclusion is supported by the data presented in the table, where greater amounts of ice correspond to more significant drops in temperature from the initial to the final temperature. The other options provided do not accurately reflect the relationship observed in the data.
