Specific heat capacity (c) is the energy required to raise 1 gram of a substance by 1°C. Water's unusually high specific heat (4.184 J/g°C) is why oceans moderate Earth's climate.
💡
Pro Tip
In cooking, dense materials like cast iron hold heat longer (large mc product) while thin aluminium pans heat and cool rapidly.
⭐
Did You Know?
Water has the highest specific heat of any common liquid, making it the best coolant and responsible for coastal climates being milder than inland areas.
