     \[0.1{{m}^{3}}\] of water at \[80{}^\circ C\]is mixed with \[0.3\text{ }{{m}^{3}}\] of water at\[60{}^\circ C\]. The final temperature of the mixture is

    A)  \[65{}^\circ C\]

    B)  \[70{}^\circ C\]

    C)  \[60{}^\circ C\]            

    D)  \[75{}^\circ C\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let the final temperature of the mixture be t Heat lost by water at 80°C \[=ms\Delta t\] \[=0.1\times {{10}^{3}}\times {{s}_{water}}\times ({{80}^{o}}-t)\] \[(\because m=V\times d=0.1\times {{10}^{3}}kg)\] Heat gained by water at 60°C \[=0.3\times {{10}^{3}}\times {{s}_{water}}\times (t-{{60}^{o}})\] According to principle of calorimetry Heat lost = Heat gained \[\therefore \]\[0.1\times {{10}^{3}}{{s}_{water}}\times ({{80}^{o}}-t)\] \[=0.3\times {{10}^{3}}\times {{s}_{water}}\times (t-{{60}^{o}})\] or \[({{80}^{o}}-t)=3\times (t-{{60}^{o}})\] or \[4t={{260}^{o}}\] or \[t={{65}^{o}}C\]
