Different substances require different amounts of heat to change their temperature by a given amount. This behavior of the materials is called the specific heat and is a characteristic of each material. a. True
b. False

True

Explanation:

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

It is dependent on the type of material and is fixed for a particular type of material. For example: The specific heat capacity of iron material is fixed and the value is

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
