Specific HeatMediumQuestion 30850

Question

Molar heat capacity of a substance is related to specific heat by:
  1. A
    C = c × M
    Correct
  2. B
    C = c / M
  3. C
    C = c + M
  4. D
    C = M / c

Correct answer

C = c × M

Explanation

Molar heat capacity C (J/mol·K) = specific heat c (J/kg·K) × molar mass M (kg/mol).
