Which units express specific heat capacity?
j/°c, j/k, cal/°c cal/k j
/(gi°c), j/(gik), cal/(gi°c), cal/(gik)
j, cal
°c, k

Answer : The correct option is .

Explanation :

Specific heat capacity : It is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree Celsius.

Formula used :

where,

q = heat required

m = Mass

c = specific heat capacity

= change in temperature

The unit of heat are expressed in terms of Joules, calories.

The unit of temperature are expressed in terms of degree Celsius, kelvin.

It is expressed as .

The units to express specific heat capacity are cal/K, cal/, J/K, and J/. Thus the correct option is A.

Specific heat can be defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance by 1 degree celsius.

The expression for specific heat has been,

heat = mass specific heat capacity change in temperature

Calorie or Joule = g specific heat K or

Specific heat will be:

Thus, the units to express specific heat capacity are cal/K, cal/, J/K, and J/. Thus the correct option is A.
