Differentiate molar heat capacity from specific heat capacity.

• A. Molar heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 mole of compound by one unit of temperature while specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of compound by one unit of temperature.
• B. Molar heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 atom/molecule/formula unit of compound by one unit of temperature while specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of compound by one unit of temperature.
• C. Molar heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 atom/molecule/formula of compound by one unit of temperature while specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 mole of compound by one unit of temperature.
• D. Molar heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 mole of compound by one unit of temperature while specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 atom/molecule/formula unit of compound by one unit of temperature.
