This question seems to be an essay question from experiment. Different solution of oxidizing agent will have different strength. Sulfuric acid or H2SO4 is weaker oxidizing agent when compared to nitric acid (HNO3). In this case, if you subtitute the H2SO4 you wouldn't be able to get the same result for the experiment.

Explanation:
Bayer process is industrial method of the refining of the bauxite to produce alumina which is aluminum oxide.
As alumina is amphoteric in nature, it exhibits a higher solubility at both the extremes of pH range, it is possible to dissolve alumina in low as well as in high pH solutions.
Dissolution of the alumina at high pH is well recognized in Bayer process. Bauxite is digested in very <u>high pH solution (> 13) of alkali</u> like sodium hydroxide at temperature of about 150–250°C and pressure at 20 atm. <u>This is done so that the dissolved alumina is separated from rest of insoluble bauxite minerals. </u>

Answer: 8500 J lost or -8500 J
Explanation:
q=cmt
t=375-26
t=349
q=0.38(64)(349)
q=8487.68 J
Answer must have 2 sig figs, which means it rounds to 8500 J.
