The specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram °C = 4.186 joule/gram °C which is higher than any other common substance.

**********************************************************************
The ability of water to stabilize temperature depends on its relatively high specific heat. The specific heat of a substance is defined at the amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost for 1 g of that substance to change its temperature by 1º C. The specific heat of water is 1.00 cal/g ºC. Compared with most other substances, water has an unusually high specific heat. For example, ethyl alcohol, the type in alcoholic beverages, has a specific heat of 0.6 cal/g ºC.

1? I'll believe that when someone measures it. If your water is anything like my water--or even bottled water--it will be slightly less than 1.
..but go ahead. Use one. It's such a nice number.
