Specific Heat

The heat capacity measures the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of an object or system by one degree Celsius.

The specific heat is an intensive property that describes how much heat must be added to a particular substance to raise its temperature.

Calorimetry is the measurement of the heat of chemical reactions or physical changes.

An ideal gas has different specific heat capacities under constant volume or constant pressure conditions.

Calorimetry is used to measure the amount of heat produced or consumed in a chemical reaction.
