one litre of water at 40 degree celsius is mixed with one litre of water at 60 degree Celsius the temperature of the mixture will be_____________
Answers
Answer:
50°
Explanation:
Let T° be the equilibrium Temperature
so....water at 40° gains & water at 60° loses same to attain final temperature T°
hence....T - 40° = 60° - T
i,e..2T = 100°
T = 50°
Given : One litre of water at 40˚C is mixed with one litre of water at 60˚C
To Find : The temperature of the mixture will be
(i) 85˚C
(ii) more than 60˚C but less than 85˚C
(iii) between 40˚C and 60˚C.
Solution:
Heat flows from an object at higher temperature to an object at lower temperature.
One litre of water at 40˚C is mixed with one litre of water at 60˚C
Volume of both are same
Heat will transfer from higher temperature water to lower temperature water
means from 60°C to 40°C
Hence 60°C temperature will decrease because of heat transferred to 40°C
and 40°C temperature will increase
Hence Temperature will be between 40˚C and 60˚C
One litre of water at 40˚C is mixed with one litre of water at 60˚C. The
temperature of the mixture will be between 40˚C and 60˚C.
