2) What does the specific heat capacity of a material tell you about how easy it is to heat up that material

High specific heat -> takes more energy to raise/lower object's temperature

Low specific heat -> takes less energy to raise/lower object's temperature

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of something per unit of mass.

A high specific heat value for an object means it takes more energy to raise or lower that object's temperature. A low specific heat value for an object means it does not take very much energy to heat or cool that object.
