Heat capacity
thermal property describing the energy required to change a material's temperature
Heat capacity is a measure of how much materials can store up heat as they change temperature.
Materials with high heat capacities require a lot of heat to be stored up before a small change. Materials with low heat capacities require very little heat to be stored up before a large change.
The heat capacity of one gram (or some other unit of mass) of a material is called the specific heat capacity of the material, so that the heat capacity of something is its mass times its specific heat capacity.
Specific heat capacities are often listed in tables, like this one: [1]
