108 J

Explanation:

Use the formula #q=mCΔT#

q = heat absorbed or released, in joules (J)
m = mass
C = specific heat capacity
ΔT = change in temperature

Plug known values into the formula.

#q = 10.6(.82)(34.7-22.3)#
#q = 10.6(.82)(12.4)#
#q = 107.7808#

The answer, expressed in 3 significant figures, is 108 joules of energy absorbed.

Hope this helps!
