How is it possible to add a lot of heat to something but not raise the temp very much?

If you have a small amount of thermal energy in a small area then the area will heat up faster. If you have the amount of thermal energy in a large area then you are hopeless. The same amount of thermal energy will be transferred to the air. But in a larger room there are always many more particles. Each particle only gets a tiny share of the extra energy. The average energy of the particles increases, but only a tiny bit. The temperature rises, but not very much.

The answer depends on the unidentified substance whose temperature is to be raised.
Why is a poor reflector of heat also a good absorber?
Common sense. Is something is reflected, it cannot be absorbed, and vice versa. If something is a good absorber of heat, it tries to "hold onto" as much heat as possible; if something is a poor reflector of heat, it is bad at minimizing heat absorption.
How much money does the WWF raise per year?
WWF raise as much as possible, normally around £1,000,000,000
How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.365 of copper from 23.0 to 60.0 The specific heat of copper is 0.0920?
How much heat energy is required to raise the temperature of 0.358 of copper from 23.0 to 60.0 ? The specific heat of copper is 0.0920
What property of a substance does its specific heat capacity describe?
How much heat it takes to raise the temperature
How much heat does it take to raise the temperature of a substance one degree?
The amount of heat required is called the specific sensible heat for the substance. Sensible, in this context, means something which can be sensed. This is in contrast to latent heat which is used to change the phase of a substance without a change in temperature.
How much heat does it take to raise the temperature of 0.10 kg of gold by 25 oc?
About 322.5 Joules of heat
What is the measure of how much heat will raise the temperature of 1 kg of a substance by 1 degrees c?
The specific heat of the substance.
What is the ability of a substance to absorb heat energy is called?
Specific heat capacity describes how much heat energy that is needed to raise the temperature of material.

Why does heat become unbearable after it rains in summer?
The raise in humidity after rainfall often makes the heat seem much more oppressive.
How much heat is in fresh water?
It would depend on the temperature of the water, or average kinetic energy. (KE) However, what you may be looking for is how much heat is needed to raise the KE, or temperature, of water. 4.184 kilojoules per gram is the heat required to raise the temperature of water 1 degree Celsius.
