Answer:
Q = -2090 J
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Mass, m = 50 g
Water is cooled from 70°C to 60°C.
We need to find how many heat energy are released. Heat released is given by :
![Q=mc\Delta T](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/physics/college/kuq549xu8athiwb0a6gllnnvqkpi0g7e3s.png)
c is the specific heat of water,
![c=4.18\ J/g-C](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/chemistry/high-school/97xntg94lk47aueev61g86hrh1tn31ti5i.png)
Putting all the values,
![Q=50* 4.18* (60-70)\\\\Q=-2090\ J](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/chemistry/high-school/obb113yi8jv85ctl0tqxvmrzrxjs3j9bl0.png)
So, the heat energy released is 2090 J and negative sign shows heat is released.
