- 4.5: Specific Heat Calculations
19 Ιουν 2020 · The symbol for specific heat is cp c p, with the p p subscript referring to the fact that specific heats are measured at constant pressure. The units for specific heat can either be joules per gram per degree (J/goC) (J/g o C) or calories per gram per degree (cal/goC) (cal/g o C).
11 Αυγ 2024 · The unit of specific heat is Joules per gram per degree Celsius or J/g∙ ∘ C. Another unit of specific heat is calories per gram per degree Celsius or J/cal∙ ∘ C. The temperature change (∆T) in the Celsius (C) scale is the same as that in the Kelvin (K) scale, although the temperature values differ.
19 Ιουν 2020 · The specific heat of a substance can be used to calculate the temperature change that a given substance will undergo when it is either heated or cooled. The equation that relates heat (q) (q) to specific heat (cp) (c p), mass (m) (m), and temperature change (ΔT) (Δ T) is shown below. q = cp × m × ΔT q = c p × m × Δ T.
The SI unit for specific heat capacity is joule per kelvin per kilogram J / kg⋅K , J⋅K −1 ⋅kg −1. Since an increment of temperature of one degree Celsius is the same as an increment of one kelvin, that is the same as joule per degree Celsius per kilogram: J/(kg⋅°C).
Specific heat represents the amount of heat required to change a unit mass of a substance by one degree Celsius. This is expressed mathematically as: q = m⋅ c ⋅ ΔT, where. q - the amount of heat supplied; m - the mass of the substance; c - the respective substance's specific heat; ΔT - the change in temperature.
The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. The relationship between heat and temperature change is usually expressed in the form shown below where c is the specific heat.
