If three different liquids of different ...

If three different liquids of different masses specific heats and temperature are mixed with each other and then what is the temperature mixture at thermal equilibrium.
`m_(1),s_(1),T_(1) rarr` specification for liquid
`m_(2),s_(2),T_(2)rarr`specification for liquid.
`m_(3),s_(3),T_(3)rarr` specification for liquid.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Total heat lost or gain by all substance is equal to zero
`DeltaQ=0`
`m_(1)s_(1)(T-T_(1))+m_(2)s_(2)(T-T_(2))+m_(3)s_(3)(T-T_(3))=0`
so `T=(m_(1)s_(1)T_(1)+m_(2)s_(2)T_(2)+m_(3)s_(3)T_(3))/(m_(1)s_(1)+m_(2)s_(2)+m_(3)s_(3))`
