8 0

Answer:

D. The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 °C.

Explanation:

Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat needed to raise a unit of mass of a compound by one degree on the temperature scale.

The gram is constituted as a unit of mass, and the degree Celsius as a unit of temperature, therefore, the specific heat can be defined as the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 °C.

What state of matter has a definite shape and volume.
anastassius [24]

Solids have a definite shape and volume. They are always the same shape no matter what they are contained in; their volume is also the same because they don't change unless you add or take away from it.

____________________________________________________________

Liquids have an indefinite shape but definite volume. They expand to fill out the space they are contained in, but their volume doesn't change unless you take out or add more of the liquid.

Gases have an indefinite shape and volume. Gases expand to fill out the space they are in and also don't have a clear shape because they are not always in one form.
