by the equation: Heat capacity = Q / ∆T While specific heat capacity (c) is the heat capacity per unit mass. Given by the equation: c = Q/m∆T where: c - specific heat capacity Q – heat m - mass ∆T – change in temperature And derived from that equation we could get heat: Q = mc∆T The measurement of heat is often made by applying the law of conservation of energy. Calorimetry is the application of this law. Qlost=Qgained For an instance a metal specimen is heated and then placed
