6. Water has a specific heat of 4.184 J/g°C while glass (Pyrex) has a specific heat of 0.780 J/g°C. If 10.0 J of heat is added to 1.00 g of each of these, which will experience the larger increase of temperature? A) glass B) C) water they both will experience the same change in temperature since only the amount of a substance relates to the increase in temperature. Not enough information is provided. D)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Specific heat is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a body per unit of mass.

In SI units, specific heat (symbol: c) is the amount of heat in joules required to raise 1 gram of a substance by 1 Kelvin.
