C

Explanation:

Units for heat capacity are Joule per kelvin: #Jcdot K^-1#
#:.#Units for Surface heat capacity would be

Joule per meter square per kelvin: #Jcdot m^-2cdot K^-1#

Now Joule #J# can be written in terms of kg as #kg·m^2·s^-2#

Combining above two we get #(kg·m^2·s^-2)cdot m^-2cdot K^-1#

#:.#**unit for surface heat capacity ** are #kg·s^-2cdot K^-1#
