Which of the following is most closely related to the specific heat of a substance?
a. its temperature
b. its melting point
c. its amount of heat transferred
d. its rate of change in temperature

The following that is is most closely related to the specific heat of a substance is its rate of change in temperature. The answer is letter D. The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 Kelvin is called the specific heat. The answer is a. For example, water. Water has a specific heat of 4.18 Joules per kilogram per Kelvin. This means that in order for water to change from one state to the other at one kelvin, it needs 4.18 Joules of energy per one kilogram of water. But it does not apply to changes in phase, because the heat added or removed during a phase change does not change the temperature of a substance.

both the fifth and fourteenth amendments of the united states contain a due process clause. while the fifth amendment describes a legal obligation of the federal government to not deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law, the fourteenth amendment applies the same obligation to the states to guarantee that all of the states provide fair procedures as well.
