Step-by-step explanation:

Specific heat capacity is how much is required to heat the unit of mass by one degree. Therefore, if you have a higher heat capacity it required more energy, therefore, it takes longer to heat up. whereas having a lower heat capacity it takes less time to best up as it requires less energy.
