Answer:
Q = 20377.5 Joules
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass = 75g
Initial temperature = 65°C
Final temperature = 0°C
Specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g°C.
To find the quantity of heat released;
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
[tex] Q = mcdt[/tex]
Where;
Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
m represents the mass of an object.
c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
dt represents the change in temperature.
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] Q = 75 * 4.18 * 65 [/tex]
Q = 20377.5 Joules
