The water would need to lose 1.045kJ of heat.

Explanation:

In order to determine this value we would use the equation
Q=m(TfTi)Cp) where

Q= Quantity of heat in Joules
m= Mass in grams
Tf= the Final Temp
Ti= the Initial Temp
Cp= the Specific Heat Capacity of the Substance

Q=?
m=225g
Tf=10oC
Ti=25oC
Cp=4.18JgoC the Specific Heat Capacity of water

Q=25g(10oC20oC)4.18JgoC

Q=25g(10oC)4.18JgoC

Q=1045J

Q=1.045kJ
