please, what is the correct answer? Substance A has a higher specific heat than substance B. With all other factors equal, which requires the most energy to heat(longer time to heat) equal masses of A and B to the same temperature? Substance A Substance B Both require the same amount of heat Answer depends on the density of each substance what is the correct answer and why\'? Solution The definition of specific heat is: It is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius of any matter. Compound A has higher specific heat than compared to compound B which means for per degree Celsius rise in temperature requires more heating for A than B. Thus with all other factors same, to raise the temperature of the same mass of A and B to the same temperature the most energy (longer time) required for substance A . I hope it helps!!!!!!! .
