A wooden walkway and a sandy beach are at the same temperature. The sand feels much hotter because it has a greater _____.

entropy
insulation capacity
surface area
thermal conductivity

Respuesta :

I'm 100% that the answer is D, thermal conductivity.

It was either C or D but D makes more sense than C does 

so your answer is D 

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The ability of a substance to conduct heat is known as thermal conductivity. More easily a substance heats up more will be its thermal conductivity.

Whereas entropy is the degree of randomness of a substance.

When an object has the capacity not to heat up easily then it is known as insulation capacity.

Therefore, we can conclude that a wooden walkway and a sandy beach are at the same temperature. The sand feels much hotter because it has a greater thermal capacity.
