Answer:

A C and D. (The one that isn't is density).

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't think you are going to like the answer very much. The definition tells you that Specific heat has units of

Joules/(°Kelvin * mass in kg)

The reason you won't like this much is because there are three answers

  • temperature: °K
  • Energy: Joules
  • Mass: kg

You won't be able to separate them. Once in a while you get a question like this where the asker didn't know the subject matter well, but was likely a good programmer.
