m = Q/(DeltaTC_p)

Explanation:

Using the thermochemistry heat quantity equation Q=mDeltaTC_p
we can solve for mass by isolating the m where:

Q = Heat in Joules
m = mass in kilograms
DeltaT = change in temperature (t_f-t_i)
C_p = Specific Heat Capacity in J/(g^oC)

Q=mDeltaTC_p
Begin by isolating the m variable

Q/(DeltaTC_p)=mcancel(DeltaTC_p)/cancel(DeltaTC_p)

m = Q/(DeltaTC_p)
