Chapter 8, Problem 80QAP
Equal masses of liquid A, initially at 100°C, and liquid B, initially at 50°C, are combined in an insulated container. The final temperature of the mixture is 80°C. All the heat flow occurs between the two liquids. The two liquids do not react with each other. Is the specific heat of liquid A larger than, equal to, or smaller than the specific heat of liquid B?
