I am doing a Chemistry lab, and I am trying to figure out how much energy is released by the warm water as it is cooled through 47 degrees celsius and 44.4 degrees celsius. What and how would I need to do to solve this?
Heat= mass X specific heat X change in temp

heat= mass x specific heat x change in temperature
specific heat of water= 4.184 joules per gram degrees celsius
change in temperature would be 3.4 degrees celsius
all you need is the mass of the water if you have it and plug all of these in and that should give you the heat released.
