MCQ
Specific heat may be defined as :
- AHeat capacity at constant volume
- BHeat capacity at constant pressure
- CHeat capacity $\text{mol}^{-1}$
- ✓Heat capacity $g^{-1}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Heat capacity $g^{-1}$
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one $-$ degree celsius is known as specific heat. Heat capacity is the amount of heat added to a substance to raise its temperature by one kelvin.
Thus, specific heat may be defined as heat capacity per gram.
Thus, specific heat may be defined as heat capacity per gram.
