About 50 years ago, mounting evidence was suggesting
that the temperature of Earth's surface has been sharply
increasing for the past couple of centuries. Nowadays,
additional evidence no longer suggests it; it confirms it.

Today's mounting evidence suggests that human activity is
responsible for the increase, but that the increase eventually
spells curtains for much of human activity.

How many milliliters of water at 25.0°C with a density of 0.997 g/mL must be mixed with 162 mL of coffee at 94.6°C so that the r

Answer:

The volume of water is 139 mL.

Explanation:

Due to the Law of conservation of energy, the heat lost by coffee is equal to the heat gained by the water, that is, the sum of heats is equal to zero.

$Q_{coffee} + Q_{water} = 0\\Q_{coffee} = - Q_{water}$

The heat (Q) can be calculated using the following expression:

$Q=c \times m \times \Delta T$

where,

c is the specific heat of each substance

m is the mass of each substance

ΔT is the difference in temperature for each substance

The mass of coffee is:

$162mL.\frac{0.997g}{mL} = 162g$

Then,

$Q_{coffee} = - Q_{water}\\c_{c} \times m_{c} \times \Delta T_{c} = -c_{w} \times m_{w} \times \Delta T_{w}\\m_{c} \times \Delta T_{c} = -m_{w} \times \Delta T_{w}\\m_{w} = \frac{m_{c} \times \Delta T_{c}}{-\Delta T_{w}} \\m_{w}=\frac{162g \times (62.5 \°C - 94.6 \°C ) }{-(62.5 \°C - 25.0 \°C)} \\m_{w} = 139 g$
