the specific heat (cp or cv) can also be understood as a "capacity or ability of a given material to store "heat". In this way, we can say that: 1- the greater the specific heat, the greater the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material.2- the higher the specific heat, the lower the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material3- the lower the specific heat, the greater the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material4- the lower the specific heat, the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material does not change5-the higher the specific heat, the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material does not change choose only one of the above alternatives as correct
