Specific Heat. Amount of heat that is needed to raise the temperature of 1 KG of a substance by 1 degree Celsius. Heat. Thermal energy that flows from something at ... q = m x C x DT m= q/C x DT m= 216J/(0.90J/goC x 20oC ) m= 12g`. 5.0 g of copper was heated from 20°C to 80°C. How much energy was used to heat Cu?
