Specific heat capacity, or simply specific heat, refers to the heat capacity per unit mass of a pure substance. In other words, it is defined as the amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of 1kg of a material by 1K and is expressed in terms of J/kg·K or equivalently J/kg·°C. As an intensive property, specific heat capacity changes with the change in the material’s type or phase and can be considered for objects of arbitrary size..
Specific heat at constant volume is when the volume remains constant while heated through a short range of temperature, and is denoted by the symbol cv.
Specific heat at constant pressure, on the other hand, is when the pressure remains constant while heated through a short range of temperature, and is denoted by the symbol cp.
