प्रश्न

Specific heat capacity of a substance A is 3.8 J g-1 K-1 and of substance B is 0.4 J g-1 k-1. Which substance is a good conductor of heat? How did you arrive at your conclusion?

लघु उत्तरीय

उत्तर

The specific heat capacity of substance B is lesser than that of A. So, for same mass and same heat energy, the rise in temperature for B will be more than that of A. Hence, substance B is a good conductor of heat.
