Want this question answered?
specific heat capacity
heat constant = mass * specific heat capacity * temperature change
The specific heat capacity of water does not change much within-phase (ie, as a solid it has one specific heat capacity, as a liquid/gas it has another)
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.

heat constant = mass * specific heat capacity * temperature change
The specific heat capacity of water does not change much within-phase (ie, as a solid it has one specific heat capacity, as a liquid/gas it has another)
(Mass) x (Specific Heat Capacity)*(change in temperature)
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.
I would like to start off by saying that: Energy absorbed by metal = mass of metal x specific heat capacity of metal x change in temperature of the metal If the same amount of energy is given to all three metals, there would be the highest temperature increase in the metal with the lowest specific heat capacity. Therefore, Silver would be the answer.
The equation for specific heat is: C = q/temp. change x mass. C is a substance's specific heat, which is a constant for every substance. q is its heat capacity in joules, temp. change is the change in temperature in degrees Celsius, and mass is in grams.

Heat energy Q = mass x specific heat capacity x temperature change. Q = m*c*delta T Q = Joules m = kg c (aluminum) = 895.8 J/kg delta T = degr.C temp. change Answer: Q = (20/1000) x 895.8 x 5 = 89.58 Joules (Specific heat capacity of aluminum is obtained by multiplying its specific heat of 0.214 with c of water which is 4186 J/kg = 0.214 x 4186 = 895.8 J/kg).
Is the amount of energy that is required to change the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1 degree Celsius with no state change.
