Final Balance Temperature of Mixture

Mix two masses when heat capacities constant and heat no escape.

Your numbers

Temperature when mixture balance

—

Insulated mixture, constant heat capacities, no container heat, no reaction and no phase change.

Formula

Use T = (mₐcₐTₐ+mᵦcᵦTᵦ)/(mₐcₐ+mᵦcᵦ). m mean mass, c mean specific heat, and subscripts dey identify di materials. Tₐ and Tᵦ na initial temperatures for °C; equilibrium temperature T dey use di same scale. Assume no heat loss or phase change.

Mix two masses when heat capacities constant and heat no escape.

Example wey show the calculation

Mass for object A (kg): 1
Specific heat capacity for A (J/kg·K): 4184
Starting temperature for A (°C): 80
Mass for object B (kg): 3
Specific heat capacity for B (J/kg·K): 4184
Starting temperature for B (°C): 20

Temperature when mixture balance: 35 °C

Where e fit work and limits

Insulated mixture, constant heat capacities, no container heat, no reaction and no phase change.

We check inputs for missing values and allowed ranges. Result wey pass the finite numeric range no go show. Rounding affect wetin display, while calculation use the model numeric precision.

Check your units and assumptions before you rely on result. Changing label no convert currency or physical unit.
