| The heat capacity is an indication of how fast an object [...] or [...]. | The heat capacity is an indication of how fast an object heats or cools. |
| Heat [...] refers to the amount of heat needed to raise or lower an object's temperature. | Heat capacity refers to the amount of heat needed to raise or lower an object's temperature. |
| [...] is the amount of heat energy that it takes to raise the temperature of one gram of a specific substance by one degree Celsius. | Specific heat (C) is the amount of heat energy that it takes to raise the temperature of one gram of a specific substance by one degree Celsius. |
| Metals usually have [low/high] specific heats. | Metals usually have low specific heats. |
| liquid water and ammonia have relatively [low/high] specific heats. | liquid water and ammonia have relatively high specific heats. |
| Different materials have different specific heat values, so if you calculate the specific heat of an unknown substance, you can look up this value on a [...] and find out what the substance is. | Different materials have different specific heat values, so if you calculate the specific heat of an unknown substance, you can look up this value on a table and find out what the substance is. |
