149g water at 50^circ C is added to 104 gice at 0^circ C. Final temperature of the mixture is 26^circ C. Calculate the heat lost by water?(Specific Heat Capacity; Water: 4.18J/g^circ C and ice: 2.108J/g^circ C) a. -14948J b. 14.948 KJ -18.18KJ d. 18183J

To calculate the heat lost by water, we can use the formula: where:- is the heat lost or gained,- is the mass of the substance,- is the specific heat capacity of the substance,- is the change in temperature.Given:- Mass of water ( ) = 149 g- Specific heat capacity of water ( ) = 4.18 J/g°C- Initial temperature of water ( ) = 50°C- Final temperature of the mixture ( ) = 26°CThe change in temperature for water ( ) is: Now, we can calculate the heat lost by water: Therefore, the heat lost by water is .The correct answer is:a.
