Question

Which is the correct equation, Q = m × c × ΔT, rearranged to solve for specific heat?

Answer 1

c = Q/(m x deltaT)
This is the equation rearranged for specific heat

Answer 2

Answer: The specific heat will be $c = \dfrac{Q}{m\times \Delta T}$

Explanation:

Given that,

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

Here,

Q = Energy

m = molar mass

c = specific heat

$\Delta T$= Temperature

The specific heat will be

$c = \dfrac{Q}{m\times \Delta T}$

The specific heat defined as the ratio of heat required per unit mass and per unit change in temperature.

Hence, The specific heat will be $c = \dfrac{Q}{m\times \Delta T}$.
