2.

A student wanted to see if the color of water affects the rate at which the water changes temperature. The student added 50 milliliters (ml) of water to each of three beakers. Five drops of food coloring were added to the water in each beaker. The beakers were then placed on a window ledge in direct sunlight. The temperature of the water in each beaker was recorded every 10 minutes for 30 minutes.

a)

the color of the water

b)

the temperature of the water

c)

the amount of water in each beaker

d)

the amount of time each beaker was exposed to sunlight
