Expert Solution
Step 1

Specific heat capacity is a characteristic of a particular pure liquid. It is a minimum heat required amount to raise the temperature of liquid having unit mass with one unit. Heat is a form of energy. Heat is measure in-unit cal of Joules. Different substances with different states have different heat they gain or lose is depends on the specific heat capacity of that substance.
