In a calorimetry experiment, two liquid substances X and Y with the same mass are placed in separate isolated containers. The specific heat of the substances are related by cX=2cY. If the substances receive the same amount of heat, what will be the relationship between the change in temperature, ΔTX and ΔTY? A. ΔTX=ΔTY B. ΔTX=2ΔTY C. ΔTX=4ΔTY D. 2ΔTX=ΔTY
