I think the correct answer is option D. The specific heat capacities of similar substances differ because of differences in forces between molecules. Specific heat is the amount of heat absorb or released by a substance to change the temperature to one degree Celsius. Every substance have different structures thus they also have different ways of storing energy and ways to break the bonds they have.

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Specific heat is the amount of heat needed by a unit mass of the given substance to raise its temperature.

More closely the atoms are bonded together more will be the specific heat required by them.

Therefore, we can conclude that the specific heat capacities of similar substances differ because of differences in property of forces between the molecules.
