Answer:

A. high specific heat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Specific heat defines the heat or thermal capacity of a substance.

Water has a high specific heat which adds an advantage to a heat exchanger. Due to the high heat or thermal capacity of the water heat exchanger can transfer a huge amount of heat between two or more fluids.

Hence, the correct answer is "A. high specific heat."
