Question

The specific heat capacity of a pure substance can be found by dividing the heat needed to change the temperature of a sample of the substance by the mass of the sample and by the change in temperature. The heat capacity of a certain substance has been measured to be 2.76J·g°C. Suppose 466.g of the substance are heated until the temperature of the sample has changed by 39.4°C. Write an equation that will let you calculate the heat that was needed for this temperature change. Your equation should contain only symbols.

Answer 1

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

ΔQ = m c T        ΔQ = heat required(J)    m = mass (g)    T = C° temp change

                             c = heat capacity in J/g-C
