How much heat in joules has to be removed from 225g of water to lower its temperature from 25.0oC to 10.0oC?

The heat is given by:
[tex]Q=mC\Delta T[/tex]where m is the mass, C is the specific heat and delta T is the change in temperature.
In this case the mass is 225 g, this means that m=25.
The specific heat capactiy of water is 4.18 J/g°C then C=4.18.
Finally the change in temperature is
[tex]\Delta T=10-25=-15[/tex]Plugging the values we have that:
[tex]Q=(225)(4.18)(-15)=-14107.5[/tex]Therefore we need to remove -14107.5 J of heat. This is approximately -14.11 kJ
