Water has a specific heat of 4.186 J/g°C, and ethanol has a specific heat of 2.450 J/g°C. Based on this information, which best compares water and ethanol?

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Water has a specific heat of 4.186 J/g°C, and ethanol has a specific heat of 2.450 J/g°C. Based on this information, which best compares water and ethanol?

It requires more heat to raise the temperature of a gram of ethanol by 1°C.

There are more molecules in a gram of water.

Ethanol has a lower formula mass.

Water has more protons and neutrons in its nuclei.

There are more molecules in a gram of water.

Explanation:

Let us recall that the molar mass of water is 18g/mol while the molar mass of ethanol is 46 g/mol.

Hence;

1 g of water contains 18 g

There are 6.02 × 10^23/18g = 3.34 × 10^22 molecules in 1 g of water

1 g of ethanol contains 46 g

There are 6.02 × 10^23/46 g = 1.31 ×10^22 molecules

Hence, there are more molecules in 1 g of water than in 1g of ethanol.
