Four different salts, W, X, Y and Z, are dissolved in water.
The table below shows the starting temperature of the water and the final temperature of the solution after each salt dissolves.
Complete the table:
| Salt W | Salt X | Salt Y | Salt Z | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starting temperature in °C | 21.0 | 21.0 | 21.0 | 21.0 |
| Final temperature in °C | 24.5 | 19.2 | 25.2 | 17.5 |
| Temperature change in °C | +3.5 | −1.8 | ..... | ..... |
| Salt that absorbed the most heat energy when it dissolved |
