Specific heat
The amount of heat required to raise the temperatures of a substance by one degree Celsius. Larger the value, the more energy can be absorbed.
Higher (c)
slower to heat up or cool down
Lower (c)
faster heats up or cools down
Q = m c Triangle T
Q = heat energy (J)
m = mass (g)
c = specific heat J/g ºC
Triangle T = change in temp Tf - Ti ºC
