Q1. The heat energy required to raise the temperature of a given mass of substance through 1?C is called?
Q.2 the heat energy required to convert 1 gram of ice at its melting point in liquids without any rise in temperature is called?
Q.3 heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance through1?C is called?

Answer 1

Dear student,

1. The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a given mass of a substance through 1 degree Celsius is called Heat Capacity. It is denoted by $C_p$. It's unit is $J/°C$ or $\raisebox{1ex}{$J$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$K$}\right.$.
$Q=C_p△T$
2. The heat energy required to convert 1 gram of ice at its melting point into its liquid form without any rise in temperature is called Latent Heat of Fusion of Ice($L_f$). It's unit is $\raisebox{1ex}{$J$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$g$}\right.$ .
$Q=m_i{L}_f$
3. The heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1gram of a substance through 1 degree Celsius is called Specific Heat Capacity.
It's unit is $\raisebox{1ex}{$J$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$g°C$}\right.$ , and is denoted by $c_{sp}$.
$Q=m{c}_{sp}△T$
