in the SI system - the amount of energy to raise 1 Kg of material 1 K
.02 btu
Specific heat (Cp)= the amount of heat needed to raise 1 g of a substance 1 degree C. CP of Sc= 0.568 J/g oC
Every substance has a specific heat. The definition of specific heat is: The amount of energy, usually measured in calories, needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a certain substance by one degree Celsius.
because it has a great heat capacity
raise the temperature of the body by 1 Celsius
Mass, heat capacity, the desired raise in temperature.
A calorine is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1gram of water 1 degree celsius.

The amount of heat necessary to raise 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree Celsius is known as?
the amount of heat needed to raise the temeperature of 1kg of some material by 1 degrees celsius(or 1K)
A calorie is the amount of energy that needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water one degree Celsius. The Joule is the SI unit for energy.

Specific heat is the amount of heat needed to melt one kilogram of a substance...heat of fusion
The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius
1 calorie is defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1C, so... It takes 8.1 calories to raise your 8.1 grams by 1C, but you need to raise it 20C. 8.1*20=162. 162 calories is the answer you are looking for.
The needed energy is 10 calories.
