A substance that has a specific heat that is higher than liquid water and explain what it means?
that means more energy is needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of liquid from 1 Celsius than water.
Which would have higher temperature change water or aluminum?
Starting from the same temperature and for the same amount of heat input, aluminum would wind up with a higher temperature than water because water has a higher heat capacity (it takes more energy to raise its temperature) than aluminum.
Which can more transfer heat a cup of boiling water or 1 basin of tap water?
A cup of boiling water since it has higher temperature. Note that heat transfer depends more on the temperature.
Why does water not heat up or cool off as air?
because the specific heat of water is very high
Which can transfer more heat a cup of boiling water or a cup of tap water?
A cup of boiling water since it has higher temperature. Note that heat transfer depends more on the temperature.
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.

Why is it the darker the surface will have the higher temperature?
A dark surface will absorb the heat and reach a higher temperature. A light surface will reflect most of the heat and become cooler.

Starting from the same temperature and for the same amount of heat input, aluminum would wind up with a higher temperature than water because water has a higher heat capacity (it takes more energy to raise its temperature) than aluminum.
Where can you find thermal energy?
in anything that has a temperature above ABSOLUTE ZERO (-273oc) has heat energy- obviously, that means that everything has some heat energy. The hotter something is- the more heat energy it consumesCommentWe no longer use the term, 'heat energy'. The modern term is 'internal energy'. The term 'heat' describes the transfer of energy from a body at a higher temperature to one at a lower temperature.

because the specific heat of water is very high
A substance with a higher specific heat will take more energy to raise its temperature?
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.

Why is petrol a better fuel then wax?
the fuel produces has higher ignition temperature and produces more heat
What will the solubilty of most liquids do as temperature increases?
The solubility increases as the temperature increases. This is due to the fact that there is more energy available the higher the heat.
