The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the equation \( \Delta Q = nC dT \), we need to understand what each term in the equation represents and how they relate to heat transfer. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Variables**: - \( \Delta Q \): Represents the change in heat energy. - \( n \): Represents the number of moles of the substance. - \( C \): Represents the specific heat capacity of the substance. - \( dT \): Represents the change in temperature. 2. **Understanding the Equation**: - The equation \( \Delta Q = nC dT \) describes how much heat energy (\( \Delta Q \)) is absorbed or released by a substance when its temperature changes by \( dT \). - The product \( nC \) indicates the total heat capacity of the substance, which depends on the amount of substance (in moles) and its specific heat capacity. 3. **Interpretation of Heat Transfer**: - This equation is used to calculate the heat transfer when a substance undergoes a temperature change. It indicates that the heat transfer is directly proportional to the amount of substance, its specific heat capacity, and the change in temperature. 4. **Choosing the Correct Option**: - The question asks what \( \Delta Q = nC dT \) represents. - The correct interpretation is that it represents the amount of heat energy that is transferred due to a temperature change, which aligns with option B: "amount of heat energy which transit from one body to another body due to temperature difference". ### Conclusion: Thus, the correct answer to the question is option B.
