7(c)(i). The diagram 7.2 shows the materials used by Claudia for preparing tea. Claudia finds that the colour of the tea is light. Why? *

Because she used cold water

Explanation:

Tea leaves contain different flavors that dissolve in water to give it its distinct taste as well as its color. If water is hot, the flavors will dissolve quickly due to the fast movement of the heated water molecules.

If the water is cold however, as is the case in the above scenario, the flavors will take longer to dissolve in the water which means that the tea's color will not change drastically leading to a light tea.
