The specific heat values are different for different materials because:
- It is the heat required to increase the temperature by 1 unit.
- All the materials like lead, mercury and water contain different atoms, hence, their same mass will contain different particles.
- Each type of particle has a different capacity to absorb heat energy and to transfer heat energy.
- So, the specific heat values are different for different materials.
