Answer:

The specific heat capacity of a substance is the heat capacity of a sample of the substance divided by the mass of the sample. Informally, it is the amount of energy that must be added, in the form of heat, to one unit of mass of the substance in order to cause an increase of one unit in its temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

More explanation...

The ratio of the heat energy absorbed by a substance to its increase in temperature. Heat capacity is also called thermal capacity. The specific heat or specific heat capacity of a substance is the heat capacity per unit mass, usually measured in joules per kilogram per degree Kelvin.

- Without the statements, I will not be able to give an exact answer. Hope this helps!
