What do you understand by the following statements : (i) The heat capacity of the body is 60 JK-1 . (ii) The specific heat capacity of lead is t 30 Jkg-1 K-1 

Answer»

(i) The heat capacity of the body is 60 JK-1. This means that the amount of heat energy required to raise the body's temperature by 1 K without going through a change of state is 60 J.

(ii) The specific heat capacity of lead is 130 Jkg-1 K-1. This means that the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of lead through 1 K is 130 J.
