    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Heat capacity (usually denoted by a capital C, often with subscripts), or thermal capacity, is the measurable physical quantity that characterizes the amount of heat required to change a substance’s temperature by a given amount. In the International System of Units (SI), heat capacity is expressed in units of joule(s) (J) per Kelvin (K). Among iron piece, water, gold piece and benzene; water has the maximum heat capacity i.e. 4.1813 j/k.
