The specific heat of substance A is greater than that for substance B. If both sample sizes are the same and they both start at the same temperature and equal amounts of heat are added to both these samples, substance A will have a lower temperature than substance B.

What is substances specific heat?
The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the substance to 1 degree greater than that of the initial temperature of the body!
What is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a substance 1C.?
A substance's molar specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise one mole of that substance 1 degree Celsius.For water, this is exactly one calorie, assuming the state of the water does not change. Otherwise, it depends on the substance, and the substance's current temperature and state.for apex its latent
How does high temperature affect volume?
High temperature makes the volume greater.
What is a substance that has a pH of more than 7.0.?
an example is baking soda, milk of magnesia, blood.
Is 32 degrees F greater than 0 degrees C?
No, they are the same temperature.
What is the substances specific heat?
The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the substance to 1 degree greater than that of the initial temperature of the body!
Explain why two substance can have the same temperature but different amounts of thermal energy?
Because energy is related to the atomic mass of the substance (1/2 mv^2 and all that). So, at the same temperature a more massive substance has a greater thermal energy.
What is substances specific heat?
The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of the substance to 1 degree greater than that of the initial temperature of the body!
How does temperature relate to amount of energy present in a substance?
Higher temperature means greater energy content compared to a lower temperature. The energy required to change the temperature is proportional to the mass of the system, the specific heat capacity, and the temperature change.
Suppose a fixed number of joules of energy as heat is added to 1 kg of substances listed below. Which substance will the rise in temperature be the least?
The greater the specific heat, the lower the temperature rise. The specific heats will be listed in the Handbook of Physics and Chemistry.
What is the random molecular of a substance is greatest when the substance is?
It is greater when the substance is at a higher temperature. This is because the mean square speed of the molecules of a system is proportional to thermodynamic temperature.
Will specific heat of 50 g of a substance be the same as or greater than the specific heat of 10 g of the same substance?
same
Why is ocean temperature more constant than air temperature?
The specific heat of water is greater than the specific heat of air.
What affects density more temperature or salinity?
Density is affected by both temperature and salinity. The colder the temperature and the saltier the substance, the greater the density.
What substance has a temperature less than 0 degrees but not greater than 5 degrees?
By definition, ANY substance which has a temperature of less than 0 degrees is not greater than 5 degrees. Your question may need to be re-stated or clarified.
Which substance has the highest specific heat?
Probably water.
How can the specific heat of water be used to determine the specific heat of an object?
If you know the temperature and mass of an object, and the temperature, mass, and specific heat of the water, if you dunk the object in the water, and measure the temperature of the water and the object (once the object and water have the same temperature), using reasoning skills and/or equations you can figure out the specific heat of the object. Historically the specific heat was related to SH of water . Water being 1 That now is seen as archaic. The specific heat (of a substance) is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. This does not apply if a phase change is encountered. Every substance has to be measured separately .
