The definition of Specific Heat Capacity is:
"The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 kg (a unit mass) of the substance by 1C (a unit temperature rise)"
Symbol: c
Unit: Jkg-1K-1
c=ΔQ/m
Where:
ΔQ is the heat energy added (or removed)
m is the mass of the substance you are heating (or cooling)
Δθ is the change in temperature.
