If two cups are in thermal contact with each other, one has 250 grams of water at 100 C and the other has 250 grams of water at 0C - I know that once thermal equilibrium is reached, the water in both cups will be at 50 C. This is just based on intuition because both cups have equal amount of water.
What if the two cups contained different amounts of water? For example, if cup 1 has 250 g and cup 2 has 50 g. I am confused as to how I can find out the temperature after thermal equlibrium is reached. What equation should we use here? I was trying q = mct
