It means that it takes more energy to produce the same increase in temperature in the same amount. For example it takes more energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree than it does to do the same with 1 gram of iron. Therefore water has a higher specific heat.

What is a measure of the average motion of the molecules in a substance?
When we heat a substance, the energy absorbed is converted into kinetic energy of the particles in it. The faster the particles in it vibrate, move, collide, etc. the higher the temperatureof a substance.So the expected answer is Temperature
Temperature is an indication of the?
Temperature is the measure of the kinetic energy of the particles in a substance; The hotter the material, the higher the kinetic energy of its particles. More commonly, temperature refers to how hot or cold something is.
What is the average amount of energy of motion of each particle in a substance?
The average amount of energy of motion (also known as kinetic energy) in the particles of a substance (atoms and molecules) is measured by the temperature of that substance. More energy will produce a higher temperature.
In what environment will water evaporate first in a cold or warm temperature?
when the temprature is hot the substance will evaporate( the person that wrote this before is a dummy)
How does temorature affect viscosity?
Yes. Higher Temperature= Low viscosity Lower Temperature=High viscosity
Does temperature have a higher amount of thermal energy in a substance?
The higher of the temperature of a substance, the more thermal energy it has.
How does temperature relate to amount of energy present in a substance?
Higher temperature means greater energy content compared to a lower temperature. The energy required to change the temperature is proportional to the mass of the system, the specific heat capacity, and the temperature change.
If a substance has a specific heat less than one would it take more or less heat to raise the temperature?
The higher the substance's specific heat capacity, the more heat energy is needed to raise it's temperature.
What is the relationship between specific heat and the change in temperature of a substance?
Specific heat is the amount of energy it takes to raise a unit mass of the substance by one degree Celsius. For each unit of specific heat applied to a substance its temperature will increase by a set amount.
What is the measure of the kinetic energy of the particles of a substance?
Temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a substance.
What movement of thermal energy from a substance with a higher temperature to one with a lower temperature?
Heat.
What term refers to the average kinetic energy of the particles of a substance?
Temperature refers to the average kinetic energy of a suubstance. The higher the average kinetic energy, the higher the temperature.
Is the average amount of energy of motion in the particles of substance?
The average amount of energy of motion (also known as kinetic energy) in the particles of a substance (atoms and molecules) is measured by the temperature of that substance. More energy will produce a higher temperature.
What is a measure of the average motion of the molecules in a substance?
When we heat a substance, the energy absorbed is converted into kinetic energy of the particles in it. The faster the particles in it vibrate, move, collide, etc. the higher the temperatureof a substance.So the expected answer is Temperature
Why does evaporation require that heat energy be added to a substance?
Heat is energy the substance needs to change it's state of matter (the more energy a substance has the higher it's temperature)
The More particles a substance has at a given point the higher its temperature?
The more thermal energy it has
Why aluminum can store more heat than iron?
yes
