Metals such as iron, lead, copper, and zinc have relatively ___ specific heats. This means it takes ___ energy to chan thejr tem
ivann1987 [24]

B. Low; very little

Explanation:

Metals such as iron, lead, copper and zinc have low specific heats. This means that it takes very little energy to change their temperature.

Specific heat is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of substance by 1°C.

Metals have good thermal conductivity and generally have low specific heat. This implies that their temperature can easily be raised when heated.

Some substances like water have very high specific heat. This suggests that they require more heat to raise their temperature.
