Answer:

-26.125 kj

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water = 250.0 g

Initial temperature = 30.0°C

Final temperature = 5.0°C

Amount of energy lost = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 5.0°C - 30.0°C

ΔT = -25°C

Specific heat of water is 4.18 j/g.°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 250.0 g × 4.18 j/g.°C × -25°C

Q = -26125 j

J to kJ

-26125 j ×1 kj /1000 j

-26.125 kj
