To find the final temperature of the water when 1 litre of hot water at \(80^\circ C\) is poured into 5 litres of water at \(20^\circ C\), we can use the principle of conservation of energy. The heat lost by the hot water will be equal to the heat gained by the cold water. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the masses of the water:** - The mass of the cold water (\(m_1\)) is given by the volume multiplied by the density: \[ m_1 = 5 \, \text{litres} \times 1 \, \text{kg/litre} = 5 \, \text{kg} ...
