Hi I'm wondering how you can find the q of a reaction when there is no temperature change? I thought of this while looking at the q = nC*deltaT equation.
When you use this equation, and input 0 for delta T, q can only equal 0.
Thank you.

Re: q value when no change in Temp
I think that if there is no change in temperature then that equation will give you a q of 0 since that equation tells us the heat due to temperature. If you want to get a q value not equal to 0 when there is no temp change you might need to use a different equation.

Re: q value when no change in Temp
Q is the value of the net heat transfer. If , then there's no heat transfer. Therefore q = 0

Q would be zero, since no change in temperature also means no heat is transferred
