The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of one kilogram of a substance by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin) is the specific heat capacity. It is measured in J/kg·K and it is a material-specific property. Substance with high specific heat makes them useful in thermal regulation systems such as water takes longer to heat or cool. The formula is Q=mc? T, where m is mass, c is specific heat, and? T is the temperature change.
