Cold water (cp = 4.18 kJ/kg•ºC) enters a counter-flow heat exchanger at 18ºC at a rate of 0.7 kg/s where it is heated by hot air (cp = 1.0 kJ/kg•ºC) that enters the heat exchanger at 50ºC at a rate of 1.6 kg/s and leaves at 25ºC. The maximum possible outlet temperature of the cold water is

(a) 25.0ºC

(b) 32.0ºC

(c) 35.5ºC
