|
The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1.0 kg of the material 1.0K
|
|
|
The total amount of energy a material can hold before turning to a gas
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The specific heat capacity of a material is the energy required to raise one kilogram (kg) of the material by one degree Celsius (°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4, 200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C). This means that it takes 4, 200 J to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1°C.
Detailed explanation-2: -From this, we know now that it takes 4.184 joules to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius-that’s the specific heat capacity of water.
