Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of a substance indicates the amount of heat energy required to raise 1 kg of that substance by 1 degree in temperature.

Mathematically:

C=\frac{Q}{m\Delta T}

where

Q is the heat supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

\Delta T is the change in temperature

Therefore, the higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is needed to increase its temperature.

Here we can compare the specific heat capacity of the materials mentioned:

Silver: C=0.233 J/gK

Brass: C=0.380 J/gK

Platinum: C=0.130 J/gK

Aluminium: C=0.910 J/gK

Copper: C=0.390 J/gK

Therefore, the correct statements are:

Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass
