How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.358 of copper from 23.0 to 60.0 ? The specific heat of copper is 0.0920
The higher the substance's specific heat capacity, the more heat energy is needed to raise it's temperature.

Specific heat capacity is the amount of energy or heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one kelvin. So if the specific heat capacity is high then you would require more energy or heat to raise its temperature. The specific heat capacity does not really have anything to do with how much you can increase an objects temperature. IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ENERGY NEEDED TO INCREASE THE TEMPERATURE.
You need to know its specific heat.

Mass, heat capacity, the desired raise in temperature.
These are not temperature numbers but specific heat numbers. They mean that it takes 4.184 Joules and 0.387 Joules respectively to raise water and copper of one gram by one degree celsius. So, as you can see, it takes a lot more heat to raise the temperature of water than it does of copper. Water has a very high specific heat.
The higher the substance's specific heat capacity, the more heat energy is needed to raise it's temperature.

because it has a great heat capacity
Q=0.75 g x 0.385 J/goC X 22OC
This is one calorie

The specific heat of a substance allows us to calculate the amount of heat energy required to change its temperature. Water has a specific heat nearly 11 times great than copper, therefore, water will take 11 times more energy to heat. Also water heats slowly and copper heats and cools rapidly.
The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius
Specific heat capacity describes how much heat energy that is needed to raise the temperature of material.
