The specific heat is the measure to determine which material needs a lesser amount of energy to rise its temperature. Specific heats are described below:

Aluminium: [tex]903\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}[/tex]

Gold : [tex]129\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}[/tex]

Water: [tex]4184\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}[/tex]

Wood: [tex]1300\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}[/tex]

Gold reports the lowest specific heat and, hence, requires the least energy to raise its temperature 7°C.

Assuming all the substances below have the same mass, which substance below requires the least energy to raise its temperature by 7°C? Use the table to help you answer the question. Substance Specific Heat J/(kg ) 900 Aluminum Gold Water 4.184 Wood O A. Gold O B. Aluminum O C. Wood O D. Water
