    Heat gained or absorbed in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:

    Heat = mC (T2-T1)

    We have to determine the value of (T2-T1) which is the temperature change. To do this, we simply substitute the values given above. We do as follows:

    Heat = mC (T2-T1)

    34 kJ (1000 J / kJ) = 355 mL (1 g / mL) (4.184 J / g-C) (T2-T1)

    (T2-T1) = 22.89 degrees Celsius or Kelvin

    THerefore, the temperature change of the abosrption of 34 kJ of heat by water would be 22.89 degrees Celsius.
