Does sand have a high or low specific heat capacity?
sand have low specific heat capacity.
Will things that heat quickly have a low or high specific heat?
both
Materials with a high specific heat can absorb heat without a large what in temperature?
change
Materials with a high specific heat can absorb a lot of energy and show little change in temperature?
Yes. Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to change the temperature of the material, so a material with high specific heat needs a lot of heat energy for its temperature to go up.
Does a high or low specific heat mean the substance heats up so fast?
low specific heat is like sand and high specific heat is like water at the beach it may be hot outside the water is still cold but the sand is hot as ever.
Waters high specific heat is mainly a consequence of the?
absorbtion and release of heat when hydrogen bonds break and form
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.
Which has high specific heat monoatomic or diatomic gas?
diotomic has a higher specific heat ratio
Does sand have a high or low specific heat capacity?
sand have low specific heat capacity.
Is there a thermocline present in high latitude ocean waters why or why not?
Thermocline is not typically found in high latitudes of ocean waters because of less penetrating heat rays since the sun's energy hits the earth at an angle in the high latitude ocean waters.

What is high heat capacity?
A substance with a high specific heat capacity is one that needs a lot of heat energy pumped into it in order to raise its temperature. Substances with relatively high specific heat capacities include water, rock, and potatoes.
Thermal insulators have?
are often metals.have high conductivity
How does specific heat of a substance relate to temperature change?
A substance with a high specific heat will easily change temperature.
How does the specific heat of a substance relate to temperature change?
A substance with a high specific heat will easily change temperature.
Does hydrogen or water has high specific heat capacity?
Water has a MUCH higher specific heat than hydrogen.
