The greater the specific heat of a substance: a. more heat energy is required to change the temperature b. less heat energy is required to change the temperature c. it has no effect on the temperature change

less heat energy is required to change the temperature maybe

Non metal is an element or substance that is not a metal metal is a solid material that is typically hard, shiny, malleable, fusible, and ductile, with good electrical and thermal conductivitymetalloid is an element (e.g., germanium or silicon) whose properties are intermediate between those of metals and solid nonmetals. they are electrical semiconductors.
