Question

Water can absorb more heat than land, but water does not increase in temperature as fast because it has a high A) polarity. B) surface area. C) heat capacity. D) surface tension.

Answer 1

C. heat capacity

It's actually the hydrogen bonds but this was the closest answer to hydrogen bonding.

Answer 2

Answer;

-Heat capacity

-Water can absorb more heat than land, but water does not increase in temperature as fast because it has a high heat capacity.

Step-by-step explanation;

-Heat capacity is the capability of water to absorb heat without undergoing an increase in temperature. For water to increase in temperature, its molecules must be made to move faster within the water; which requires breaking hydrogen bonds that absorbs heat.
