Specific heat is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 oC. Based on this definition, what is the equation to calculate specific heat? Select one: specific heat = temperature change ( mass × heat ) specific heat=temperature change(mass × heat) specific heat= heat (mass × temperature change) specific heat= (heat × temperature change) mass specific heat= temperature change mass

The correct equation is (specific heat capacity= heat / (mass × temperature change)

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity of a substance is defined as the quantity of heat supplied or required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of 1 kg ( or 1 g) through a unit rise in the temperature of 1 K ( or 1°C).

If Q is the quantity of heat required in (Joules)

M is the mass of substance heated,

If ∆O is the change in temperature in ( Kelvin),

Then Q= MC∆O

Where C is a constant called Specific heat capacity. Therefore, making C the subject of formula:

C= Q /M∆O

Specific heat capacity= Heat quantity/ mass × change in temperature.

the answer is true. hope it .
