Water's High Heat Capacity
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Water has a high heat capacity — a large amount of energy is needed to raise its temperature, because much of that energy first breaks hydrogen bonds.
Show
A large lake warms and cools far more slowly across a day than dry land beside it.
Watch for
Heat capacity describes the energy needed to change water's temperature, not the energy needed to change its state.
