Question
What are the two factors about a system that relate the heat of a process and the temperature change that the process causes the system?
Step 1
This formula is given by: \[ Q = mcΔT \] where: - Q is the heat of the process, - m is the mass of the system, - c is the specific heat capacity of the system, and - ΔT is the temperature change in the system. Show more…

What is the relationship among heat added to a system, change in the system’s internal energy, and external work done by the system?
Give an example of a process in which no heat is added to a system, but its temperature increases. Then give an example of the opposite: a process in which heat is added to a system but its temperature does not change.
