The coinage metals (Group 1B) copper, silver, and gold have specific heats of 0.385, 0.233, and 0.129 J/g-K, respectively. Among this group, the specific heat capacity and the molar heat capacity as the atomic weight increases.

(a) increases, increases.

(b) increases, decreases.

(c) decreases, increases.

(d) decreases, decreases

Answer :

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1kg of a substance by 1oC. Molar heat capacity of a substance is the heat requiredto raise the temperature of 1mole of a substance by 1oC. Molar heat capacity and specific heat capacity both decreases with increase in atomic weight. Increase in atomic weight also means increase in density of the substance.
