21. This property is known as a substance's specific heat capacity. 22. The specific heat capacity of hydrogen is 14270 J / kg & middot; K. 23. :: : I wonder why the specific heat capacity of water is particulaly high. 24. The specific heats are particularly useful for thermodynamic calculations involving the ideal gas model. 25. He also showed that different substances have different specific heats . 26. Equation 1 can now be related to the specific heat equation for constant volume. 27. However, its specific heat capacity is very low because it is not very dense, with. 28. The extra bonding between water molecules also gives liquid water a large specific heat capacity. 29. The insulating capability of a material is measured with specific heat capacity ( c ). 30. However, liquid lubricants are much more effective on account of their high specific heat capacity.
