This uses specific heat capacity. The formula is E=mcθ where E is energy in joules, m is mass of substance in kg, c is the specific heat capacity of a substance in joules per kelvin per kg and θ is the change in temperature in either Celsius or Kelvin.
Specific heat capacity of water is 4200 (to 2 sig. Fig.)
m=5kg
C=4200
Change in temperature=100-20=80
E=5*4200*80
E=1680000J
