A.) water's high heat conductivity
B.) water's high specific heat capacity
C.) the iron nail's high heat conductivity
D.) the large mass of water
E.) the iron nail's high specific heat capacity

Answer:B and D

Explanation:

Water has a specific heat of capacity, it would take more than a hot iron to raise it's temperature. And ofc the more the mass of water or anything, the more the energy needed to raise its temperature.

The properties which keep the water temperature from changing much is the water's high specific heat capacity.

What is specific heat?

The heat capacity of a sample of a substance divided by the mass of the sample is the specific heat capacity of the substance, also known as massic heat capacity.

Specific heat of water is more than the specific heat of iron so that water require more energy to raise the temperature as of iron.

Hence correct option is water's high specific heat capacity.
