Answer:

376.56J

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount or quantity of heat absorbed can be calculated using the formula:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where; Q = amount of heat absorbed (J)

m = mass of water (g)

c = specific heat capacity of water (J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to the provided information in this question; m = 10.0g, c = 4.184J/g°C, final temperature = 32°C, initial temperature = 23°C

Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 10 × 4.184 × (32 - 23)

Q = 41.84 × 9

Q = 376.56J
