2. Imagine you have just baked a pizza in the oven. You've only let it cool for a minute, but you're

hungry and you want to take a bite. To minimize your chances of burning your mouth, should you take

a bite with a lot of sauce on it or a bite near the crust that contains very little sauce? Explain your

answer based on what you have learned about thermal energy and specific heat capacity. (5 points)

Think about how the specific heat capacity of the watery sauce compares with that of the much drier

pizza crust.

You should take a bite near the crust that contains very little sauce.

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity is amount of heat a one gram of substance must absorb or lose to change its temperature by one degree Celsius.

The sauce has water in it. Water has a high high heat capacity,( i.e 4.186 J/g °C, ) which means that the sauce takes more time to cool, as a result the sauce is still be hot even after few minutes of cooling, as compared to crust which has less sauce so it will cool faster.
