Athermometer is placed in a beaker full of water that has been sitting on the lab table for a few hours. the beaker is placed on a ring stand and heated over a bunsen burner for 4 minutes. after 4 minutes, the temperature is taken again. find the temperature change of the water if the temperature of the room is 26°c. a)26°cb)73°cc)99°cd)124°c

Based on the information I would assume B, 73 degrees...

It shouldn't be A, 4 minutes on the burner should increase the temperature.

If it were D, it would be beyond boiling, and water takes a decent amount of energy to heat, D should be all vapor.

Same logic for C, it's basically almost boiling.

I would say 73 degrees seems most reasonable for 4 minutes.

Wind will blow from one direction to another.
