Question

Which of the two has a higher specific heat capacity, copper or steel?

Answer 1

Answer:

steel is the answer for your question

Answer 2

Steel has a higher specific heat capacity relative to that of copper.

• Specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a given substance by one degree.
• It is represented by Q=mcΔT, where Q is heat energy, m is mass, c is specific heat capacity and ΔT is the change of temperature.
• Its SI unit is JKg⁻¹K⁻¹
• It is a physical property of a substance.
• Steel has 0.120 JKg⁻¹K⁻¹ specific heat capacity whereas, copper has 0.090 JKg⁻¹K⁻¹ specific heat capacity.
