We compare Q and K to determine which direction the reaction will proceed to obtain equilibrium. If Q is greater than K, the system will shift to the left. If Q is less than K, the system will shift to the right. If Q is equal to K than the system is already at equilibrium so it will not shift in either direction.
Q. What is specific heat in physics?
Specific heat, the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one Celsius degree. The units of specific heat are usually calories or joules per gram per Celsius degree.

Q. What does Q mC ∆ t mean?
heat energy
Q. What unit is Q in chemistry?
Joules
Q. What are the units of Q and K?
Re: Units for K and Q [ENDORSED] The units used to calculate K and Q must be constant in the equation, so that the units will cancel out and leave K and Q without specific units, as K is a constant and Q is a ratio.
Q. What does M stand for in chemistry?
Molarity (M) is the amount of a substance in a certain volume of solution. Molarity is defined as the moles of a solute per liters of a solution.
Q. What is the chemical formula of sweat?
We can also say that when the average temperature of about 98.6 degrees is crossed by the body, the brain becomes uncomfortable and send message to the sweat glands to produce sweat. There is no chemical formula of sweat.
Q. How much sweat is normal?
In humans, sweating is primarily a means of thermoregulation, which is achieved by the water-rich secretion of the eccrine glands. Maximum sweat rates of an adult can be up to 2–4 liters per hour or 10–14 liters per day (10–15 g/min·m2), but is less in children prior to puberty.
Q. Is Sweating an endothermic process?
Sweating reduces skin temperature because the sweat that is secreted to the skin evaporates, which is an endothermic process. Thus, heat is absorbed from the body and skin to drive the evaporation of the sweat on the skin.
