Q

Heat absorption for a substance

heat = temperature change(Kelvin) * Specific Heat (constant) * mass (kilograms)

A

The amount of energy input/output for an object based on change in temperature after heat loss/exposure. Not state change inclusive.

Q

Entropy = Q(reversible)/T(constant for equation)

A

Essentially as heat is given to a system for any given temperature, without exceeding the temperature, or causing a reaction, we have increased the entropy in a matter directly proportional to the amount of heat placed into the system
