User: what is exodus

User: If the specific heat of water is 1.0 calorie/gram°C, how many calories are required to raise 500 grams of water 10.0°C? 510 cal 5,000 cal 50 cal

User: The specific heat of gold is 0.031 calories/gram°C and the specific heat of silver is 0.057 calories/gram°C. If equal amounts of each metal are exposed to equal heating, which will heat up faster? The silver will heat up almost twice as fast. The gold will heat up almost twice as fast. They will heat up at the same rate. It is impossible to tell.

Weegy: The higher a specific heat is, the more heat is stored per degree, and temp then goes up slower.
