Question

Rearrange the specific heat capacity equation for:

i) ( m )
a) ( m = frac(q)(cΔ T) )
b) ( m = cΔ T )
c) ( m = frac(1)(cΔ T) )
d) ( m = frac(cΔ T)(q) )

ii) ( c )
a) ( c = frac(q)(mΔ T) )
b) ( c = frac(1)(mΔ T) )
c) ( c = frac(q)(m) )
d) ( c = mΔ T )

iii) ( Δ T )
a) ( Δ T = frac(q)(mc) )
b) ( Δ T = frac(1)(mc) )
c) ( Δ T = frac(q)(m) )
d) ( Δ T = frac(q)(c) )

Answer 1

The specific heat capacity equation can be rearranged to solve for mass, specific heat, and change in temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given equation Q = mcAT, the specific heat capacity equation can be rearranged as follows:

1. m = Q / (cΔT)
2. c = Q / (mΔT)
3. ΔT = Q / (mc)

These rearranged equations allow you to calculate the mass (m), specific heat (c), and change in temperature (ΔT) when given the heat transferred (Q). The symbols and units used in the equations are explained in the given information.
