    In order to calculate the heat absorbed by the water, we require the specific heat capacity of water. This is 4.18 J/g. Now, we use the formula:

    Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature

    Q = mcΔT

    Q = 250 * 4.18 * (100 - 15)

    Q = 88,825

    The energy absorbed by the water is 88.8 kilojoules
