Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Heat capacity has units of J / g °C

if g of the two samples are equal , for comparison , this can

be reduced to J / °C

sqec heat = J/°C

or re-arranging :

J / spec heat = °C

now if spec heat 1 > spec heat 2

then adding the same J will cause less temp rise in 1 than in 2

Example : adding 100 J of heat to each sample .... and say,

specheat 1 = 4 and specheat2 = 2

J / specheat 1 = C

100 / 4 = 25 ° C Temp change

J /specheat 2 =

100 / 2 = 50 <===== so smaller spec heat results in higher ° C change
