Solution

The energy required can be calculated using the formula:

Q = mcΔT

where: Q = heat energy m = mass c = specific heat capacity ΔT = change in temperature

Given: m = 0.60 kg c = 4.2 kJ/kg°C ΔT = 56°C - 31°C = 25°C

Substituting the given values into the formula:

Q = (0.60 kg) * (4.2 kJ/kg°C) * (25°C) = 63 kJ

So, the energy required to increase the temperature of 0.60 kg of water from 31°C to 56°C is 63 kJ.
