Question

A certain chemical reaction releases of heat for each gram of reactant consumed. How can you calculate what mass of reactant will produce of heat

Answer 1

Answer:

Specific heat capacity formula

Explanation:

The heat capacity gives the exact heat energy at which a given mass of a substance is heated from one temperature to another.

This formula can help determine how much heat is gained or lost during the reaction and is given by:

Q = mcΔT

where:

Q = heat energy in Joules or Calories

m - mass of the substance (g)

c = Specific heat capacity (J/kg°C)

ΔT = change in temperature = (final temp - initial temp) (°C)

I hope this was helpful.
