View Available Hint(s) More heat is required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water 1°C than to raise the temperature of 1 g of ethyl alcohol 1 °C. Sulfuric acid is less resistant to temperature change than water. Ethyl alcohol likely exhibits more hydrogen bonding than water. More heat is required to raise the temperature of 1 g of benzene 1 °C than to raise the temperature of 1 g of water 1 °C. Water has a high specific heat due to the hydrogen bonding between water molecules. Benzene is more resistant to temperature change than sulfuric acid. Water is less resistant to temperature change than ethyl alcohol.arrow_forward
