r. Beaker A holds 100 ml of water and the thermometer reads: 25 degrees Celsius. 

Beaker B holds 200 ml of water and the thermometer reads: 25 degrees Celsius. 

How does the temperature of the water in the large beaker compare or contrast with the temperature of the water in the small beaker?

The water in the large beaker and the water in the small beaker has the same temperature because the thermometers show the same readings
