Question

What is the meaning of the statements that the specific capacity of water is 4200j/kgc

Answer 1

Answer:

Joules is a measure of energy. The energy required to converting heat energy into water temperature change requires joules or kilojoules. for one degree of temperature change it requires 4200joules of energy to heat 1kg of water.

There is also another interesting quality called specific latent heat, which is to say that more energy is required to convert ice to water or water to gas without changing its temperature requires additional energy which for water is especially high when compared to other molecules.
