Explanation / Answer

1)

water does indeed have a very high specific heat capacity.

The specific heat of water is the amount of heat needed to raise its temperature a certain amount.

One of water's most significant properties is that it takes a lot of heat to it to make it get hot.

2)

aluminium have a low specific heat capacity.

The specific heat of aluminium is the amount of heat needed to raise its temperature a certain amount.

so that it takes a less of heat to it to make it hot.
