Specific Heat Capacity of Chemical Elements Chart

The specific heat capacity of an object is a thermodynamic quantity that determines how much heat is needed to warm up a unit mass of an object by 1 degree Celsius (or Kelvin). To make decisions about processes for heat exchange, energy storage, and thermal management, it is important to know the specific heat capacity of different elements. Alfa Chemistry gives you this chart to find the heat capacity of the element in the periodic table.
