    7.399 kJ

    Explanation:

    The heat lost (Q) by the hot water is the product of the mass (m) of hot water, temperature difference (ΔT) and the (c) specific heat capacity of water. Mathematically,

    Q = m*c*ΔT

    The final volume of hot water = 30 ml, and the density of water = 1 g/ml

    Thus, mass (m) = 30*1 = 30g

    ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = 60 - 1 = 59 °C

    Specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/g °C

    Therefore

    Q = m*c*ΔT = 4.18*30*59 = 7398.6 J

    To convert from J to kJ, we will divide by 1000:

    Q = 7398.6/1000 = 7.399 kJ
