Question

did i get this
heat capacity is a -- property, meaning --.
specific heat is a -- property, meaning --.
relative to other substances the specific heat of water is --.
what is the unit for specific heat?
$\frac{j^{circ}c}{g}$
$jg^{circ}c$
$\frac{j}{g^{circ}c}$
$\frac{jg}{^{circ}c}$
describe how this unit for specific heat reflects its definition.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Heat capacity is an extensive property. Extensive properties depend on the amount of substance. For example, a large amount of a substance will have a higher heat capacity than a small amount. Specific heat is an intensive property. Intensive properties do not depend on the amount of substance. The specific heat of water is relatively high compared to many other substances. The formula for specific heat \(c=\frac{Q}{m\Delta T}\), where \(Q\) is heat (in joules, \(J\)), \(m\) is mass (in grams, \(g\)), and \(\Delta T\) is temperature change (in \(^{\circ}C\)). So the unit is \(\frac{J}{g^{\circ}C}\). The unit \(\frac{J}{g^{\circ}C}\) reflects the definition of specific heat as it shows the amount of heat (\(J\)) required per unit mass (\(g\)) per unit temperature change (\(^{\circ}C\)).

Answer:

Heat capacity is an extensive property, meaning it depends on the amount of substance. Specific heat is an intensive property, meaning it does not depend on the amount of substance. Relative to other substances the specific heat of water is high. The unit for specific heat is \(\frac{J}{g^{\circ}C}\). The unit \(\frac{J}{g^{\circ}C}\) reflects that specific heat is the heat (\(J\)) per unit mass (\(g\)) per unit temperature change (\(^{\circ}C\)) as per its definition \(c = \frac{Q}{m\Delta T}\).
