Answer:
530 J
Explanation:
Heat absorbed is:
q = mCΔT
where m is mass, C is the specific heat, and ΔT is the temperature increase.
The specific heat of iron is 0.449 J/g/C. Therefore:
q = (62 g) (0.449 J/g/C) (27°C − 8°C)
q ≈ 529 J
Rounded to two significant figures, the heat absorbed is approximately 530 J.
