When it absorbed 1.00x10^2 J, the temperature increased 1.0 K. How do I find the heat capacity of it? Thank you.How do I find the heat capacity of this unknown object?
Using the equation, q=mc螖T, where q is your energy in Joules, m is your mass in grams, c is your specific heat capacity in J/gK, and T is your temperature in Kelvin, you can solve for c. The 1.00 E2 J goes in for the q, and the 1.0 K for the 螖T. However, you don't seem to have a mass provided. Therefore, your c would be 1.00E2 divided by whatever mass you have.
Hope that helps!
