    12560 J.

    Explanation:

    To calculate the energy, we use the relation:

    The amount of heat absorbed by water = Q = m. c.ΔT.

    where, m is the mass of water (m = 1.5 kg = 1500.0 g).

    c is the specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C.

    ΔT is the temperature difference = (final T - initial T = 27°C - 25°C = 2°C).

    ∴ The amount of heat absorbed by water = Q = m. c.ΔT = (1500.0 g) (4.186 J/g°C) (2°C) = 12560 J.
