Specific heat is said to be the other form of physical property of matter. Matters would have temperature that is associated with it. The temperature found in a matter is said to have direct measure of motion of any molecules. The greater motion would come along with higher temperature.
The specific heat is known as the amount of heat that is available in per unit mass and involved to increase temperature by only one degree Celsius. There is a relationship between temperature and heat and will also change which is expressed in form when c is known to be specific heat.
Q = cm ∆ T
Where,
Q is heat added
C is said to be specific heat
m is mass
∆ T is said to be change in temperature
