Specific heat capacity of water?

This is 4200 J/kg K

4.184 Joules per degree C per gram. --or-- 4.184 J 0C-1 g-1

1.00cal/gxc (g=grams c=celcius)

Water has a high specific heat because of the hydrogen bonds acting on the molecules. These hygrogen bonds can "store" thermal energy, and this allows water to absorb or release a lot of heat without...

Water has a high specific heat due to hydrogen bonding, which increases intermolecular forces between molecules. See the detailed answer below for more information. We should first start with a...
