Answer #1

After mixing the cooler sample of water will warm up (heat energy "flows" into it)

The warmer water will cool down (heat energy "flows" out of it).

The whole mixture will became at the same temperature.

Energy flow out = Energy flow in

qlost=qgain=m xdelta t xcp

65g x (95-49.6) x4.184 = m x( 49.6-25 ) x4.184

65 x 45.4 / 24.6 =m

m= 119.9 g
