    C) 6.3 x 10^2 Joules

    Explanation:

    We are given;

    Mass of water as 10 g Initial temperature of water is 5.0°C Final temperature of water is 20°C Therefore, Change in temperature, ΔT is 15°C

    We are required to calculate the amount of heat energy absorbed ...

    Quantity of heat absorbed is calculated by multiplying mass of water with the specific heat capacity by change in temperature. That is; Q = mcΔT

    Specific heat capacity of water, c is 4.184 J/g°C

    Therefore;

    Q = 10 g * 4.184 J/g°C * 15°C

    = 627.6 Joules

    = 6.3 * 10^2 Joules

    Thus, the heat energy absorbed is 6.3 * 10^2 Joules
