Question 1
Which property of water helps in moderating Earth's climate and maintaining stable temperature in aquatic environments?
  • Low viscosity
  • High specific heat capacity✔️
  • High surface tension
  • High polarity
Correct Answer Explanation
Water has a high specific heat capacity, meaning it can absorb or release large amounts of heat with minimal temperature change, moderating climate and stabilizing aquatic temperatures.
