Hot water at 90°C is poured into a large Styrofoam cup that contains water at 20°C. The final temperature of the mixture is 75°C, closer to the initial temperature of the hot water.
a.) Which mass of water was the greatest, the hot or the cold water? Does that mean that the heat lost by the water is less than the heat gained by cold water? Explain.
b.) Calculate the ratio of cold water to hot that would give this result. Start with energy conservation: Qн + Qс = 0.
c.) If there was 150g of hot water calculate how much heat was exchanged?
