The specific heat capacity of liquid X X\,X is less than that of liquid YYY.
What does this statement mean?
Less energy is needed to raise the temperature by 1∘C1^\circ\text{C}1∘C of unit mass of liquid XXX than unit mass of liquid YYY.
More energy is needed to raise the temperature by 1∘C1^\circ\text{C}1∘C of unit mass of liquid XXX than unit mass of liquid YYY.
Less energy is needed to vaporise unit mass of liquid XXX than unit mass of liquid YYY.
