Substance A has a specific heat capacity of 0.452 J/g℃, Substance B has a specific heat capacity of 2.64 J/g℃. If an equal mass of both substances at room temperature was placed in a heated room, which substance would you expect to heat up faster?

Substance A or B?

The specific heat capacity is the amount of heat necessary to elevate 1 degree 1 kg of the substance. Its unity is J/gºC. We can calculate the heat that changes the temperature of a substance by the equation:

Q = mcΔT

Where Q is the heat, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in the temperature.

Thus, Substance A, has a specific heat capacity of 0.452 J/g℃.
