False
The lower the specific heat of a substance is, the more heat will be required to cause a temperature change in the substance.
False. Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of the substance by 1 °C, and thus a greater specific heat means more heat would be required to raise the substance's temperature.

The stronger the bond is, the less energy will be released when it forms.
False. The amount of energy that must be used to break the weak bonds is small compared to all the energy that is given off when strong bonds form, so forming stronger bonds means more energy will be released.
