Heat capacity defined per mole of a substance is known as the:

AMutual specific heat
BMolar specific heat
CModal specific heat
DMortal specific heat
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Molar specific heat
1. Specific heat capacity is normally defined per kilogram. 2. The same quantity can be defined per mole instead. 3. Heat capacity per mole is known as the molar specific heat capacity. 4. So the answer is molar specific heat. _Source: syllabus Physics Part II, Ch 10 'Thermal Properties of Matter'_
