4.How is the mass of an object relevant to the amount of heat it can absorb?

The activity mainly describes the difference between the capacity of objects to absorb

heat with respect to its mass. The basin of water tends to absorb more heat than the

cup of water due the difference in the amount of water. The higher the mass of an

object, the higher the amount of heat it can absorb on the other hand, the lower themass of an object, the lower the amount of heat it can absorb. Therefore, the quantity

of heat to raise the temperature of an object or substance to 10C is known as heat

capacity. It has a formula: Q= m*Ct1-t2. Specific heat capacity is comparable to certain

heat capacity, except it is specified for a specific amount of mass. It’s the amount of

heat needed to heat 1 gram of a substance to 1oC. It describes the amount of heat a

substance can absorb to raise its temperature. The symbol for specific heat is C. It has

a unit of Joule/goC or calories/goC. Specific heat capacity of every substance is

unique which can be found in various reference books. To determine the specific heat

of an unknown substance, this formula is used: C =q/m(tf-ti)​
