उत्तर
- The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of an object by 1°C is called the specific heat or specific heat capacity of that object.
- SI unit of specific heat capacity is J/kg °C and CGS unit is cal/g °C
- It is denoted by ‘c’ and given by formula: c = `"Q"/("m"Delta "T")`
- Specific heat is a property of a substance and is different for different substances.
- Higher the value of specific heat capacity of the substance, higher is the amount of heat energy required to raise its temperature by 1 °C.
- The specific heat capacity of object is measured using principle of heat exchange.
