Answer: The amount of energy needed to heat the body by 1 ° C (Q)
Explanation: The heat capacity or as it is called the thermal mass is the amount of energy needed to heat the body by 1 ° C. When the body is said, it refers to any object in any aggregate state. The energy required for the body to warm up by 1 ° C is expressed in joules, and is obtained when the specific heat of the body multiplies with the body mass and with the change of temperature:
Q = m·c·ΔT
Q - heat capacity (J),
m - mass of the body (g),
c - specific heat of the body (J/g-°C),
ΔT - change in temperature (°C)
