when the same amount of heat is added to equal masses of water and copper at the same temperature the copper is heated to a higher final temperature than water. on a molecular level what explains this difference

a. the average kinetic energy of water molecules is greater than the average kinetic energy of the copper
b.more of the heat is transferred to the potential energy of the water molecules than the potential energy of the copper atoms
c.the intermolecular forces between copper atoms are stronger than those between water molecules
d.more of the heat is transferred to the kinetic energy of the water molecules than to the kinetic energy of the copper atoms​

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The intermolecular forces between the water molecule is less binding than that of the copper molecule. Hence the water would take a shorter time to be converted to vapour where the temperature of boiling is constant however the temperature of that of the copper molecule keeps increasing.
