Which measurement describes the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a material by one degree Celsius?
the term is known as specific heat of that substance
Are liquid good insulators of heat?
It will depend on the specific heat, and conductivity of the material in question. energy does not care what state a matter is in. in general, no, liquids allow the molecules to move about, and will transfer the heat more quickly than a solid, however, consider aluminum, though a solid, it transfers heat quickly, while some liquids might be slower. As I said, depends on conductivity an specific heat.
How are heat and specific heat related?
heat does not effect specific heat. for example if water has a high specific heat, a change in heat wont effect its specific heat.P.S if you don't like my answer, please improve it.I like people who are honest.Heat is a form of energy. Heat either changes the state of matter from solid to liquid to gas OR it changes the temperature.Specific heat (also called specific heat capacity) is the amount of heat that a substance (like water) absorbs when exactly one gram of that substance is heated so that its temperature increases by one degree Celsius. The specific heat relates three quantities: the heat applied, the temperature change, and the mass of the object.An amount of heat may be 100 calories.The specific heat capacity allows us to calculate the temperature change for a quantity of a substance to which that heat is applied.Since the specific heat of water is 1 calorie per gram degree Celsius if 100 calories is applied to 50 grams of water then the temperature only changes 2 degrees Celsius.
When you heat a substance how can you tell it has undergone a phase change?
Specific heat is used to identify substances. It is the amount of heat that is needed to raise a sample unit by one degree Celsius and is unique to each element, and therefore, unique to each compound.
Is less energy needed for objects with high specific heat capacity?
More specific heat means you need more heat energy to, for example, raise one kilogram of a substance by one degree centigrade.
In which temperature water has maximum specific heat capacity?
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)
What is dry ice specific heat?
The specific heat of solid carbon dioxide is 54,55 J/mol.K at -83,37 oC.
What is the specific heat of solid uranium?
The molar heat of uranium is 27.665 J/mol.K.
What element has the highest specific heat of any solid element?
Lithium
If you heat a solid dose it melt or stay the same?
The change of a solid to a liquid (melting) depends on the solid and the amount of heat applied. If you apply enough heat to or above the melting point for that specific matter, it will melt or in rarer cases, sublimate
The heat needed to boil away one gram of a liquid at its boiling point is?
The heat needed to melt one gram of a solid at its melting point is the heat of fusion.
What is the value of specific heat of ebonite?
information about value of specific heat capacity of ebonite
What metal has the specific heat of 0.30?
There are three metals that have this specific heat cast iron, chromium and iron. You have to check the physical characteristics of the metal you used in your lab to determine which out of the three is the correct one.

What is molar specific heat of solid at constant volume?
This is the necessary heat to raise the temprataure of 1 mol with 1 kelvin, at constant volume.
