Specific Heat of Water
The high specific heat capacity of water has a great deal to do with regulating extremes in the environment.
Simply, it takes a lot of heat to it to make it get hot.
sprinklers
on vineyards
1. Can you think of any other phase change systems like the "vineyard - water - air system", that specific heat of water might affect?
copper coat
-originates at the tip of Florida, and follows the eastern coastlines of the United States and Newfoundland before crossing the Atlantic Ocean to Europe
It is a measure of vibration of atoms.
hot
2. What does specific heat have to do with this phenomenon?
Strong rubber bands = high specific heat (a lot of energy to get the atoms to vibrate that much) and wimpy rubber bands = low specific heat (less energy required to get atoms to vibrate that much).

Liquid to solid - exothermic
Solid to liquid - endothermic
Higher temperature means more vibration of the atoms.
Amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 degree Celsius
