b. Consider mixing two pots of water, one containing 2 kg of water at 350 K, the other containing 3 kg of water at 300 K. What will be the resulting temperature of the mixture after they are thoroughly mixed? Assume there is no heat loss to the surroundings. Q = mCpΔT
Q1=2*Cp(350-x) = Q2 = 3*Cp*(x-300)
solve
x = 320 K
