specific heat capacity is a property of matter ,it does not depend on mass whereas heat capacity of a body depends on mass of the body and specific heat capacity of material of body.

for a solid body ,volume is mass/density

If the radius of the shpere is doubled, then the volume of the sphere will
be increased by a factor of eight. Thus a doubleing of the radius is required
to increase the mass and the specific heat by a factor of eight.

volume of sphere one = 4/3 pi r1 cubed
volume of sphere two = 4/3 pi (r1x 2) cubed

The mass of an object is only proportional to its volume, thus the mass is
not equivalent to volume but only the product of volume times density.

C=c m = c (p V)
where
c- specific heat capacity (J/(K kg))
C is the heat capacity of a body made of the material in question (J/K)
m is the mass of the body (kg)
V is the volume of the body (m^3)
ρ = m/V is the density of the material (kg•/m^3)

V=(4/3)piR^3
R1:R2 = 1:8 so
R2=8R1

C1=c p (4/3)piR1^3
C2= c p (8)^3 (4/3)piR1^3

V2-V1=(4/3)piR1^3((8)^3 -1)
V2-V1=(4/3)piR1^3(511)

The mass and volume of one sphere over the other is over 500 larger.

THat answer is Cp = .239 J / g ok this suggests which you opt for 4.1855 J of skill to upward thrust one million °C of 1 gram of water . different one is Cp = 4.1855 kJ / kg : which potential you opt for 4.1855 KJ to upward thrust one million °C of 1 Kilogram of water. This answer is good because of the fact i'm a chemistry instructor.
