Question

What do you mean by heat capacity? What is its SI unit?

Answer 1

1. Heat capacity of a defined system is the amount of heat needed to raise the system's temperature by one degree.
2. Heat capacity =$\frac{Q}{∆t}$, where $Q$ is the amount of heat transfer and $∆t$ = change in temperature.
3. Its SI unit is$\frac{J}{K}$.
