Answer:
The temperature of the mixture will be between 30°C and 50°C because hot water loses the heat and simultaneously cold water gains heat this keeps the temperature in between 30°C and 50°C.

Answer:
the temperature will slightly less than 40°C. Explanation: Because water expands when heated, 1 litre of water at 50°C will have less mass than 1 litre of water at 30°C. As a result, the 30°C litre has slightly more than the 50°C litre, and thus the average will end up slightly less than 40°C.
