Answer:

= 729 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Heat absorbed by a substance is given by the formula;

Q = m×c×ΔT

Where; Q is the heat absorbed

m is the mass of the substance

ΔT is the change in temperature;

The specific heat capacity of iron is 450 J/Kg/K

Therefore;

Heat absorbed = 0.06 kg × 27 × 450

= 729 Joules
