The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. Therefore, a high value of specific heat would mean that more heat is needed in order for the temperature to increase. The correct answer would be A.) WATER since it has the highest specific heat of the choices given.<span>
