Option 1

Explanation:

The question is asking us what formula is used to obtain the quantity of heat added to a given mass of mercury in order to cause its temperature to change.

This quantity of heat is obtained from;

q = mcspΔT

Where;

q = quantity of heat added

m = mass of the mercury

csp= specific heat capacity of mercury

ΔT = temperature change
