| The specific heat of a substance is approximately 0.5 cal/g-°C. If 30 calories of heat are absorbed by 15 g of the substance at 30°C, it's temperature will become... ok so i don't even know what to solve for: I'm guessing that: Specific Heat=.5 Cal.=30 grams=15 DELTA=x but what about the other variable? Please help |

| 30 calories = 0.5 cal/g C x 15 g x delta T delta T = 4 final temp = 30 + 4 = 34 deg C |

| 30cal = 15g X 0.5 cal/ g°C X Delta 30 cal = 7.5cal/ °C X Delta 4°C= Delta so basically the temp. will become 4°C |
