Answer 1

514 cal

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the lost heat by the amount of water you first take into account the following formula:

`Q=mc(T_2-T_1)` (1)

Q: heat lost by the amount of water = ?

m: mass of the water

c: specific heat of water = 1cal/g°C

T2: final temperature of water = 11°C

T1: initial temperature = 12°C

The amount of water is calculated by using the information about the density of water (1g/ml):

`m=\rho V=(1g/ml)(514ml)=514g`

Then, you replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1):

`Q=(514g)(1cal/g\°C)(11\°C-12\°C)=-514cal`

The amount of water losses a heat of 514 cal
