Relating Heat, Temperature Change, and Heat Capacity

(a) How much heat is needed to warm 250 g of water (about 1 cup) from 22 °C (about room temperature) to 98 °C (near its boiling point)? (b) What is the molar heat capacity of water?

Suppose you have equal masses of two substances, A and B. When the same amount of heat is added to samples of each, the temperature of A increases by 14 °C whereas that of B increases by 22 °C. Which of the following statements is true? (a) The heat capacity of B is greater than that of A. (b) The specific heat of A is greater than that of B. (c) The molar heat capacity of B is greater than that of A. (d) The volume of A is greater than that of B. (e) The molar mass of A is greater than that of B.
