The students use the specific heat equation (above) to determine what they need to measure to calculate iron's specific heat.
Which student has the best understanding of the terms in the Specific Heat Equation?
Student A: "ΔH" stands for change in heat energy. "m" stands for the mass of the system. "ΔT" stands for the change in the temperature of the system.
Student D: "ΔH" stands for change in heat energy. "m" stands for the mass of the surroundings. "ΔT" stands for the change in the temperature of the surroundings.
Student C: "ΔH" is the initial heat energy in the surroundings. "m" stands for mass of the surroundings. "ΔT" stands for the final temperature of the surroudings.
Student B: "ΔH" is the initial heat energy in the system. "m" stands for mass of the system. "ΔT" stands for the final temperature of the system.
