Suppose you put 50mL of water in the can instead of 100mL and heated it to 40 degrees instead of 20 degrees. In what ways, if any, would this afect the results of the experiment? What would happen if you used 200mL of water and heated it only 10 degrees? Can you think of any advantages or disadvantages in useing either 50mL or 200mL of water in this experiment?
