To calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of a substance, we can use the formula:q = mcTwhere q is the heat required, m is the mass of the substance, c is the specific heat capacity, and T is the change in temperature.In this case, we have:m = 50 gramsc = 4.18 J/g CT = 10 CPlugging these values into the formula, we get:q =  50 g    4.18 J/g C    10 C q = 2090 JSo, the heat required to raise the temperature of 50 grams of water by 10 degrees Celsius is 2090 Joules.
