Define heat capacity .

Define vital capacity . What is its significance?

Distinguish between the spetific heat capacity and the molar specific heat capacity of a substance

Molar heat capacity of ethenol is 110.4 JK^(-1) mol^(-1) . Its specific heat capacity is

The S.I. unit of specific heat capacity is

Show that the specific heat capacity of water in terms of universal gas constant.

Show that specific heat capacity of a solid is equal to three times that of Gas constant (C = 3R)

Calculate the heat required to convert 3 kg of ice at -12 ^(@) C kept in a calorimeter to steam at 100^(@) C at atmospheric pressure. Given specific heat capacity of ice = 2100 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) , specific heat capacity of water = 4186 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) , latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.35 xx 10^(5) J kg^(-1) and latent heat of steam = 2.256 xx 10^(8) J kg^(-1) .
