What is the specific latent heat of fusion of mercury?
The specific heat temperature of mercury is 14 degrees Celsius. Comparably, the specific temperature of water is 417.9 degrees and air is 101 degrees.
Does sand have a high or low specific heat capacity?
sand have low specific heat capacity.
The fact that desert sand is very hot in the day and very cold at night is evidence that sand has a low specific heat capacity or high specific heat capacity?
It has a very low specific heat because it absorbs and releases heat energy very readily.
What substances that heat and cool quickly have a high or low specific heat?
A substance that has a low specific heat needs less heat to increase its temperature. In other words under a constant heat flux it will heat or cool more quickly than the higher specific heat substances.
Will things that heat quickly have a low or high specific heat?
both

Does sand have a high or low specific heat capacity?
sand have low specific heat capacity.
What are the advantages of mercury as a thermometeric liquid?
As mercury has a low specific heat yet is a good conductor of heat it has been the choice for thermometers. The ease of reading is due to the fact that the mercury does not wet the walls of the glass.

Water has a relatively low specific heat?
The specific heat of water is high. An example of an object with low specific heat would be a metal pan. Since specific heat is the energy needed to raise 1g of something 1 degree Celsius, water would have a high specific heat.
Is desert sand a high or low specific heat capacity?
The desert sand has very low specific heat because it absorbs and releases heat very readily.
Which metal has the highest specific heat capacity?
No. Metals have a relatively low specific heat.
The ocean has a high specific heat what would happen if the ocean had a low specific heat?
If the ocean had a low specific heat it wouldn't be able to support life. This is because the water would be too cold.
What element has the low specific heat?
water
Will things that heat quickly have a low or high specific heat?
both
Does cooking pot have low or high specific heat capacity?
Low heat capacity for effective heating.
