Energy change Q = c · m · ΔT.

Temperature change ΔT = Final Temperature - Initial Temperature.

The final temperature of both brass and water is 32.0 °C. However, the two differ in initial temperature.

How much energy did water gain in this process?

.

How much energy did brass lose in this process?

The brass cylinder is cooled in a calorimeter. The calorimeter traps heat inside, such that water absorbs all the heat lost from the brass.
