Heat energy is the internal energy of a substance, which includes potential energy and kinetic energy. It is not possible to calculate the kinetic energy of all the moving particles in a substance. Therefore, the more particles present in a substance, the more is the heat energy. Thus, heat energy is considered to be an “Extensive property”, where the quantity of the substance does not matter.
Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of 1 mass of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. Specific heat has units of energy per mass per degree and therefore, it is an “Intensive property”.
