Explanation Specific heat is the amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a unit mass of a particular substance by an amount of one degree. Specific heat at constant volume C V is the amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a unit mass of a particular substance by an amount of one degree keeping the volume constant. Specific heat at constant pressure C P is the amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a unit mass of a particular substance by an amount of one degree keeping the pressure constant. Relation for heat is given by d Q = m C d T Consider constant pressure condition d Q = m C P d T Consider constant volume condition d Q = m C V d T </
