What is Q= mc delta t

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mariulka [41]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

The substances with higher value of specific heat capacity require more heat to raise the temperature by one degree as compared the substances having low value of specific heat capacity.For example,

The specific heat capacity of oil is 1.57 j/g. K and for water is 4.18 j/g.K. So, water take a time to increase its temperature by one degree by absorbing more heat while oil will heat up faster by absorbing less amount of heat.

Consider that both oil and water have same mass of 5g and change in temperature is 15 K. Thus amount of heat thy absorbed to raise the temperature is,

For oil:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 5 g× 1.67 j/g K × 15 K

Q = 125.25 j

For water:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 5 g× 4.18 j/g K × 15 K

Q = 313.5 j

we can observe that water require more heat which is 313.5 j to increase its temperature.

What is different between an ionic bond and a covalent bond?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic bonds result from transfer of electrons, whereas covalent bonds are formed by sharing. 2. Ionic bonds are electrostatic in nature, resulting from that attraction of positive and negative ions that result from the electron transfer process; charge separation between covalently bonded atoms is less extreme.
