How many times more energy must be transferred into a kilogram of glass than a kilogram of silver to raise their temperatures by the same amount?

Answer 1

For window glass, about 3.5 times as much. The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.

The specific heat of glass is 0.20 (kcal/kg °C)

The specific heat of silver is 0.0558

0.2/0.0558=3.58423

Answer 2

The specific heat capacity of glass is more than silver, so more energy needs to be transferred into a kilogram of glass compared to a kilogram of silver to raise their temperatures by the same amount. The specific heat capacity of glass is about 0.84 J/g°C, while for silver it is about 0.24 J/g°C.
