Question

how are the heat capacity and specific heat capacity related

Answer 1

HEY DEAR...
YOUR ANSWER⬇
What is relationship between specific heat capacity and heat capacity?


Heat capacity (Cv) of a material is the amount of energy needed for the raise of one degree Celsius (or kelvin). Hence, it goes as Joules/Kelvin.

Now. Any “specific” property, in thermodynamics, is an intensive property (Which means, as you know, is any property independent of it’s measuring parameter). And here, mass is the “measuring parameter”.

Specific heat capacity (cv) of a material is, thus, the energy needed to raise one unit mass of that material through one degree Celsius (or kelvin). Hence it goes as Joules/(Kelvin*kilogram)

As already answered, Cv= mass*cv.

Extra- Specific volume is the volume per unit mass (unit- cubic metres/kilogram)

I HOPE YOU FIND IT HELPFUL.

Answer 2

Hi.

Here is your answer------

The specific heat capacity and the heat capacity are related as -

               Heat Capacity = Mass of the body x Specific Heat Capacity
                                 'C = m x c
Where as,

               'C = Heat capacity
               m = Mass of the body.
               c =Specific heat capacity.

Hope it helps.

Have a nice day.
