If you combine 280.0 mL of water at 25.00 °C and 140.0 mL of water at 95.00 °C, what is the final temperature of the mixture? Use 1.00 g/mL as the density of water.
mass of water = volume * density
= 280*1 = 280g
mass of water = volume * density
= 140*1 = 140g
Q1 = Q2
mCt = mCt
280*4.18*(x-25) = 140*4.18*(95-x)
x = 48.340C
final temperature = 48.340 C
