Do samples of 2 different substances that have the same mass,,have the same heat capacity???

no

Does the specific heat of a substance vary with the mass of the sample?

no

what is true about heat?

one effect about adding heat to a substance is an increase in the temp of the substance.+ if 2 objects remain in contact,heat will flow from the warmer to the cooler.
