Heat capacity (C_{p}) is an extensive property but specific heat (c) is an intensive property. What will be the relation between (C_{p}) and c for 1 mol of water?

Answers (1)

The quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature of one mole of the substance by one degree Celsius is known as its heat capacity.
For the molar heat capacity calculation, we multiply 18 and the value of specific heat

C_{p}=18\times c

 We know that, C (specific heat)  =  4.18\; J\; g^{-1}K^{-1} Heat capacity,

Therefore, C_{p}=18\times 4.18\; JK^{1}=75.24\; JK^{-1}
