How much heat is released when the temperature of 60g water decreases from 75 Celsius to 27 Celsius?

The heat released when the temperature of 60 g of water decreases from 75 degrees Celsius to 27 degrees Celsius is -12,049.92 J.

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

Sensible heat is the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state or phase change. Sensible heat is measured by the expression:

Q = c * m * ΔT

Where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c and where ΔT is the variation in temperature.

In this case:

Replacing:

Q= 4.184 *60 g* (-48 C)

Q= -12,049.92 J

The heat released when the temperature of 60 g of water decreases from 75 degrees Celsius to 27 degrees Celsius is -12,049.92 J.

i believe the answer is 5,000
