    Bismuth's specific heat is 121 J/kgK, the lowest of any non-radioactive metal. What is the mass of a bismuth sample if 25 J raises its temperature 5.0 K?"

    Use the formula:



    where Q is the Quantity of heat
    m is the mass
    c is the specific heat capacity
    Delta theta the change in temperature.

    You have Q, c, and delta theta. Solve for m, the mass.
