Verified Answer :

1000 g of water

The answer is A

Answer: a. 1,000 g of water

Explanation:

Heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance through 1 degree Celsius.

\(Q= m\times c\times \Delta T\)

Q= heat gained

m= mass of the substance

c = heat capacity

Heat capacity of water =  \(4.186 J/gram^0C\)

Heat capacity of steel =  \(0.49 J/gram^0C\)

Hence 1,000 g of water will have greatest heat capacity.
