Two substances, A & B, have equal masses. If each absorbs 25 Joules of energy, and the temperature of A increases by 4 degrees and the temperature of B increases by 8 degrees, one can say that * O the specific heat of A is double that of B. the specific heat of B is double that of A. O the specific heat of B is negative. the specific heat of B is triple that of A.
