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.


If a substance has a specific heat less than one would it take more or less heat to raise the temperature?

The higher the substance's specific heat capacity, the more heat energy is needed to raise it's temperature.


Why land releases heat faster than water?

Water has a higher specific heat, and this is an intensive property of the substance itself.


Will a substance with a higher specific heat value likely have more or less hydrogen bonding?

more because high specific heat is based on the substances hydrogen bonding


Does temperature have a higher amount of thermal energy in a substance?

The higher of the temperature of a substance, the more thermal energy it has.


What is the relationship between specific heat and the change in temperature of a substance?

Specific heat is the amount of energy it takes to raise a unit mass of the substance by one degree Celsius. For each unit of specific heat applied to a substance its temperature will increase by a set amount.


What is low specific gravity?

The purest water, is given the value of one (1) or unity. Unity is just a term that unites the number one (1) to a specific item. So that in the future you can relate another substance, to the substance given the value of Unity. Any substance lighter then water, like oil has a lower specific gravity. Any substance heavier then water, has a higher specific gravity. Some oils have a specific gravity of around 0.85 Some heavy substances like strong nitric acid have a specific gravity of around 1.4 Substances do not have to be liquids. They can be solids.


How does specific heat capacity affect heat retention?

Not sure what you mean by "how does it work," but Wikipedia has a very well written article on Specific Heat Capactiy. I'm sure it contains the information and explanantion you're looking for. See the web link.


What is the specific heat capacity of jam?

The specific heat capacity is the energy density of a substance. Since jam has a higher specific heat capacity than the pie crust it is contained in, this is why the contents of a pie are always much hotter than the pie itself.


What is the causes of biomagnifiction?

Biomagnification: increase in concentration of a pollutant from one link in a food chain to another. Biomagnification is the bioaccumulation of a substance up the food chain by transfer of residues of the substance in smaller organisms that are food for larger organisms in the chain. It generally refers to the sequence of processes that results in higher concentrations in organisms at higher levels in the food chain (at higher trophic levels). These processes result in an organism having higher concentrations of a substance than is present in the organism's food. Biomagnification can result in higher concentrations of the substance than would be expected if water were the only exposure mechanism. Accumulation of a substance only through contact with water is known as bioconcentration..good Luck

Do carrier proteins require energy?

By definition, osmosis does not require the transport of particles or energy in the process. Osmosis is the movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.
