ALEKS - Finding the Equilibrium Temperature when Substances at Different Temperatures Mix

[aceman]

A faster method is (g)(c)(initial temp.) + (g)(c)(initial temp.) for molecules 1 and 2 divided by (g)(c) + (g)(c) for molecules 1 and 2, this give you the final temperature/answer more reliably.

How did you get your numbers for the second half of the equation?

[somedude]

This equation set up doesn’t give me correct answers. Where are your units? I believe this type of problem has to be solved with a system of linear equations, and you have to go through twice to solve.

u still dont get how to tell if its + or - :(

[leamong]

Are they under an adiabatic condition?

[dalalhelo]

you literally screwed up at the algebra part and lost me
