Bad conductor of heat?

Substances that Don't have the capacity to carry heat


What are goods and bads?

Substances that don't have the capacity to carry heat are called bad conductors of heat (or insulators ). Substances that have the capacity to carry heat are called good conductors of heat. As for electricity, it is very, much the same.


The absorption of heat by any substances is dependent upon?

its specific heat capacity


Do water have a very high heat capacity compared to other substances?

Yes.


Which metal has the lowest specific heat capacity?

Gold has the lowest specific heat capacity.


Which have lowest specific heat capacity?

They will be the same because the molecular structure of the tea is the same as the molecular structure of water. The added tea to water does not affect the molecular structure of water.


Does water or iron has the largest specific heat capacity?

Of those two substances, water has.


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.


Which substance having high specific heat capacity?

A common substance with a high specific heat is water. There are a few substances that have a higher heat capacity than water, though, such as lithium and ammonia.


What is the quantity of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance?

If the substance is water, this is the kilocalorie (1000 calories). One calorie is the heat to raise one gram of water by 1 deg C. Other substances don't have the same specific heat capacity as water, so you have to correct for that, first find out the heat capacity (specific heat) for the substance you are dealing with.


What metal is the highest final temperature after the heat energy has been added?

The metal with the lowest thermal 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.
