- 20:36 M Q4. A substance takes in energy of Q 1 point to increase its temperature by AT. Which formula can calculate the heat capacity (C) of the substance? * C-Q ΔΤ C = Q/AT C- ΔΤ/Q Q5. The more massive a substance, 1 point the the heat capacity. * smaller same larger Q6. The specific heat capacity of a 1 point substance is defined as: * the amount of energy required for substance of 1 kg to increase the temperature by 1 °C. the amount of energy for a substance required to increase the temperature by 1 °C. the volume of substance to store 1 °C of heat.
