Which of the following is the best description of heat capacity?

A

`C = (q)/(Delta T)`

B

`C = underset(Delta T rarr 0)(lim) (q)/(Delta T)`

C

`C = underset(qrarr 0)(lim) (q)/(Delta T)`

D

`C = (Delta q)/(Delta T)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Since that heat capacity varies with temperature, the value of `C` must be considered over a very narrow temperature range.
