[SC.5.N.1.4] A student is planning an experiment to find out if color affects the amount of heat an object absorbs. He will pour 500 milliliters (mL) of water from a pitcher into four clear jars of the same size. He will cover the jars in different colors of paper and set them outside in the same amount of sunlight for 2 hours, then record the change in water temperature in each jar. How should the student create a control group in this experiment?
Place a clear, uncovered jar with the same amount of water in the same location and record the change in temperature.
Place a clear jar with the same water in a shady location, cover it with white paper, and record the change in temperature.
Place a clear, uncovered jar with the same water inside a box at the same location and record the change in temperature.
Place a clear jar with the same water in the same location, cover it with black paper, and record the change in temperature.
