प्रश्न
Explain why water is used in hot water bottles for fomentation and also as a universal coolant.
उत्तर
Hot water bottles are used for fomentation since since water does not cool quickly due to its large specific heat capacity.
Water is used as an effective coolant because of its large specific heat capacity due to which it can extract more heat.
