A student claims that water's polarity is the reason it has a high specific heat. What method could the student use to test his claim? (2 points)
Determine how dissolving salt in water affects the speccheat
Measure how much energy it takes to increase the temperature of water by one
degree
Perform research to see if other polar molecules have high specific heat
Mix water with an acid and test the new soeotic heat

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.
