Explanation / Answer

The formula for heat gained by water is given by

Heat = Mass of water * specific heat of water * Temperaturedifference

mass of water = 73.981 g

Specific heat = 4.18 J/g. K

Temperature difference = Final temperature - Initialtemperature.

so put your values in the above equation to get your answer.
