Homework Statement
Is it possible to use the heat of the sun to heat a liquid (arbitrary liquid) to a temperature that is hotter than the sun, say 5 times hotter?

Concepts in thermal equilibrium
The Attempt at a Solution
My answer is no since you can't get more heat from what is not there. On the other hand, if you can focus the energy from the sun then this is where I am unsure.
Thanks
