Define molar specific heat capacities.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

( I) The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance by 1k or `1^(@)C` at constant volume is called molar specific heat capacity at constant volume `(C_(V))` .
(ii) If pressure is kept constant it is called molar specific heat capacity at constant pressure `(C_(p))`.
