More specific heat means you need more heat energy to, for example, raise one kilogram of a substance by one degree centigrade.

What does the amount of energy needed to heat water depend on?
The equation Q=mcΔ t calculates the amount of energy for a body of mass to raise a unit temperature per unit mass. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.19 J/g°C which means that it takes 4.19 J to raise 1 g of water to 1°. The specific heat capacity also depends on what the surrounding temperature is. 4.19 J/g°C is the specific heat capacity at room temperature. Since temperature is the measurement of the average kinetic energy of the particles, the motion of particles in water affects the specific heat capacity which ultimately affects how much energy is needed to heat up water.
What is the energy needed to change the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1 degree C?
That depends entirely on the substance in question, but it is called the specific heat capacity. Energy = specific heat capacity x mass x change in temperature (Celsius or Kelvin) q = Cg x m x (T2 - T1)
What is specific heat capacity?
specific heat capacity of a substance is defined as the QUANITY OF HEAT REQUIRED to raise the temperature of 1 Kg of the substance through 1K ( kelvin ) .however it obtained the unit of J/kg/kThe specific heat capacity is the energy required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of material by 1 degree Celsius._____________________Apex: The energy needed to change the temperature of a substance The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
What is the amount of energy needed to change the temp of a substance called?
The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius
How does a substance with low specific heat cool down or heat up?
I think slowly because a substance that heats up quickly have a high specific heat capacity. i think slowly Specific heat is that amount of energy needed to raise a unit mass by a unit temperature. If something has a high specific heat, it means it needs a lot of energy to heat up, meaning slow.
What factor most influence the amount of energy needed to change the temperature of a substance?
specific heat capacity
Would substances with high specific heat capacity also have high temperatures?
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.
What property of a material tells you how much energy it can store?
Specific heat capacity tells you how much stuff energy can store. specific heat capacity is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1 degrees celsius. water has a specific heat capacity of 4200 J/kg degrees celsius.
What is the ability of a substance to absorb heat energy is called?
Specific heat capacity describes how much heat energy that is needed to raise the temperature of material.
Why is waters specific heat capacity 1.00 cal g C or 4.185 Joules g?
This is water's specific heat capacity because this is the amount of energy needed to heat up the water 1 degree Celsius.
The energy needed to melt or boil 1kg of a substance by 1C?
The value depends on the material being heated. This value is called the specific heat capacity, or just specific heat for short.

how much energy is needed to increase the temperature of 1kg of water from 20°C to 40°C. (specific heat capacity of water is 4kJ/°C/kg)?
ewan
How much energy is needed to increase the temperature of 1kg of water by 10c?
The specific heat capacity of a material is the energy required to raise one kilogram (kg) of the material by one degree Celsius (°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C).
