Question

A student claims that water's polarity is the reason it has a high specific heat.

Answer 1

Answer:

Perform research to see if other polar molecules have high specific heat

Explanation:

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of the substance by 1°C.

In this question, the student is trying to establish a relationship between polarity and specific heat of substances. This claim can be tested by performing a research to see if other polar molecules have high specific heat.

If the research shows that a large number of other polar molecules  have high specific heat, then the claim is confirmed to be true.
