Answer: The specific heat will be
$c = (Q)/(m* \Delta T)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

$Q=m* c* \Delta T$

Here,

Q = Energy

m = molar mass

c = specific heat

$\Delta T$ = Temperature

The specific heat will be

$c = (Q)/(m* \Delta T)$

The specific heat defined as the ratio of heat required per unit mass and per unit change in temperature.

Hence, The specific heat will be
$c = (Q)/(m* \Delta T)$ .
