All metals have a lower specific heat capacity than all non-metals.

If the specific heat capacity of copper is $380 \mathrm{J}/\mathrm{kg} °\mathrm{C}$. Calculate how much energy must be supplied to a $5.0 \mathrm{kg}$ block of copper to increase its temperature from $20 °\mathrm{C} - 100 °\mathrm{C}$.

In an experiment to determine the specific heat capacity of lead, a block of lead is heated using a $60 \mathrm{W}$ electric heater for $5.0$ minutes. Calculate the energy supplied by the heater in this time.

Sometimes we use materials to store thermal energy. State which of the materials in table would be the best for this.

If the temperature rise of $1000 \mathrm{kg}$ of water had to be limited to $80 °\mathrm{C}$, calculate how much energy it could store if its specific heat capacity is $4200 \mathrm{J}/ \mathrm{kg}°\mathrm{C}$.
