Calorimetry

• Specific heat capacity is the energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one kelvin
• q (energy supplied/removed as heat) =m(mass)c(specific heat capacity) ΔT(temp change)
• Mass = density * volume
• • The specific heat capacity of solution is often assumed to be the same as the heat capacity of water (4.2J g^−1K^−1).
• delta H =(q/1000)/moles
