    Water needs more energy to raise temperature by 1°C

    Explanation:

    Specific heat energy is the energy needed for a material to raise its temperature by a degree. A material with higher specific heat energy needs more energy and a material with lower specific heat energy needs less energy.

    Water!

    Explanation:

    Specific heat is described as the amount of energy required to raise one gram of a substance one degrees celcius. Therefore, the higher the number for specific heat the more energy that is required to raise the temperature of that object. Since 4.184 is greater than 1.760, more energy is required to heat water 1 degree celcius than wood!
