Answer:

Q = 976.5 J.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the thermodynamic definition of the heat in terms mass, specific heat and temperature change, we can write:

[tex]Q=mC(T_2-T_1)[/tex]

Thus, by plugging in the given data, we obtain:

[tex]Q=35.0g*0.900\frac{J}{g\°C} (52\°C-21\°C)\\\\Q=976.5J[/tex]

Regards!
