Solution 1

To calculate the amount of calories needed to raise the temperature of a certain mass of a substance, you can use the formula:

q = mcΔT

where:

  • q is the heat energy (in calories)
  • m is the mass of the substance (in grams)
  • c is the specific heat capacity of the substance (in cal/g°C)
  • ΔT is th Knowee AI is a powerful AI-powered study tool designed to help you to solve study problem.
