- Specific Heat Capacity
- The amount of energy needed to heat 1kg of a substance by 1 degree C
- energy change = mass x specific heat capacity x temperature change
- Different substances have different SHC as they need a different amount of energy to heat up
- Energy is transferred to the substance as it heats up and is lost as it cools down
