What has the highest specific heat capacity

Water

How many joules are present in 1 calorie

4.2 joules

What is the coefficient of specific heat capacity for water

0 calorie/gm

What is the coefficient of specific heat capacity for ice

½ calorie/gm

What is the coefficient of specific heat capacity for steam

0 calorie/gm

What is the formula for the final temperature when 2 bodies are mixed together and one is hotter than the other

What is the value of latent heat for ice → water (or) water → ice (in cal/g)

80 cal

What is the value of latent heat for water → steam (or) steam → water (in cal/g)

What is the formula for thermal resistance

R = L/A*K (Where L → length of conductor ; A → cross sectional area ; k → thermal conductivity)

What is the definition and formula for heat current; Why do we use it

The amount of heat passed per unit length; We use this to find out the rate of heat transfer in a body that is experiencing heat energy
