Re: q=c∆T
When heat capacity is given in J/g°C we are being given the specific heat capacity and can use the equation q=mcΔT. If you are given units in J/mol°C we are given the molar heat capacity and you should use the equation q=nCΔT. Based on what units you are given, you can use the appropriate equation.
