45 g of water at 50°C in a beaker is cooled when 50 g of copper at 18° C is added to it. The contents are stirred till a final constant temperature is reached. Calculate this final temperature. The specific heat capacity of copper is 0.39 J g-1K-1 and that of water is 4.2 J g-1K-1. State the assumption used.

उत्तर
Mass of water (m1) = 45 g
Temperature of water (T1) = 50°C
Mass of copper (m2) = 50 g
temperature of copper (T2) = 18°C
Final temperature (T) = ?
The specific heat capacity of the copper c2 = 0.39 J/g/K
The specific heat capacity of water c1 = 4.2 J/g/K
m1c1 (T1 - T) = m2 c2 (T - T2)
`"T" = ("m"_1"c"_1 "T"_1 + "m"_2 "c"_2"T"_2) /("m"_2 "c"_2 + "m"_1"c"_1 )`
`T = (45 xx 4.2 xx 50 + 50 xx 0. 39 xx 18)/ (45 xx 4.2 + 50 xx 0.39)`
= `9801 / 208.5`
T = 47°C
