You want to quickly set up a temporary water bath in your lab with a volume of 10.0L and a temperature of 37.0°C. You only have hot water from your hot water faucet (temperature = 55.2°C) and cold water from your cold water faucet (temperature = 22.0°C). What volume of hot water (in liters) must you mix with cold water to get 10.0 Lof 37.0°C water? Assume the specific heat of the water is 4.184 J/g. K and that the water has a density of 1.00 g/mL.
