Heat (q) vs Mass of Solution/Substance
Calorimetry
Formula
q = m × c × ΔT
Where:
Positive q means heat absorbed (endothermic). Negative q means heat released (exothermic).
Example Calculation
100 g of water (c = 4.184 J/(g·K)) rises by 5 K.
- 01q = m × c × ΔT
- 02q = 100 × 4.184 × 5
- 03q = 2092 J
- 04q = 2.092 kJ
