### Educational Content: Heat Transfer in Volcanic Activity#### Problem Statement:1. **Scenario**: - 25.0 kg of liquid lava at 1520.0°C flows into 35.0°C water surrounding a volcanic island. - This interaction vaporizes the water, creating steam at 100.0°C.2. **Task**: - Calculate the heat produced when the 25.0 kg of liquid lava at 1520.0°C cools down to 1170.0°C. - Assume the specific heat capacity of liquid lava is 840 J/kg·K.#### Explanation:This exercise involves the calculation of heat transfer from hot lava to its surroundings, specifically during cooling. The heat produced can be calculated using the formula for heat transfer:\[ Q = mc\Delta T \]Where:- \( Q \) is the heat produced (in Joules),- \( m \) is the mass of the lava (in kilograms),- \( c \) is the specific heat capacity (in J/kg·K),- \(\Delta T\) is the change in temperature (in Kelvin or °C). This problem emphasizes understanding the thermal interactions in a natural event like a volcanic eruption, illustrating how energy is transferred from lava to surrounding elements.

The heat produced by 25.0 Kg of liquid lava is needed to calculate.
