Specific heat capacity (c): • quantity of thermal energy required to raise the temperature

Specific heat capacity (c): • quantity of thermal energy required to raise the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1⁰C • units for specific heat capacity are J/(g • ⁰C)

 • Chemical system undergoes physical or chemical change • Energy is absorbed from

• Chemical system undergoes physical or chemical change • Energy is absorbed from or released to surroundings (H 2 O in calorimeter) • Increase in temp = exothermic rxn (negative q) • Decrease in temp = endothermic rxn (positive q)
