So you take a mixture of ice and water. Mixing salt with water lowers the freezing point of the solution. The surface of a piece of ice contacts the saltwater and then starts to turn to liquid saltwater. The thing is that energy must go into the ice to turn it to liquid (heat of fusion is energy required to melt a substance). The energy comes from the surrounding water, lowering its temperature. Since it is saltwater, not pure water, it can drop below 32°F (0°C) and remain a liquid.

When hot and cold water are mixed together what the water has reached?
When hot and cold water are mixed together, the water reaches a temperature that is between the initial temperatures of the hot and cold water. This is due to the principle of thermal equilibrium, which states that heat energy will transfer from the hotter substance to the cooler substance until they reach the same temperature.
On which two factors does the final temperature of a mixture of hot and cold water depend?
The final temperature of a mixture of hot and cold water depends on the initial temperatures of the two water sources and the amounts of hot and cold water being mixed together.
What happens if you mix hot water with cold water?
When hot water is mixed with cold water, the overall temperature of the mixture will be between the initial temperatures of the hot and cold water. The hot water will transfer heat to the cold water, resulting in a gradual temperature equilibrium.
Why does cold water not mix with hot water?
Cold water and hot water have different densities due to their different temperatures. When they are mixed together, the hot water rises and the cold water sinks, creating layers instead of being thoroughly mixed. This phenomenon is known as thermal stratification.
What is it called when hot and cold water mix?
When hot and cold water mix, it is called thermal equilibrium. This is the point at which the two temperatures equalize and reach a uniform temperature throughout the mixture. This process is governed by the laws of thermodynamics, specifically the second law which states that heat will naturally flow from a higher temperature to a lower temperature until equilibrium is reached.

If a unit of warm water is mixed with a unit of cold water what will the temperature be?
Tepid
What happens if you drink cold water mixed with hot water?
When hot water and cold water are mixed together, heat flows from hot water to cold water and brings them to equilibrium at a temperature intermediate to that of hot water and the cold water That may be right, but I think that the hot water would be more dominant causing the cold water to almost instantly turn hot.
How does a hot and cold mixer valve work to regulate water temperature in a plumbing system?
A hot and cold mixer valve works by combining hot and cold water streams to achieve the desired temperature. The valve has two separate inputs for hot and cold water, which are mixed together based on the position of the handle or knob. By adjusting the ratio of hot and cold water flow, the valve regulates the temperature of the water coming out of the faucet or shower.
What happens if you mix hot water with cold water?
When hot water is mixed with cold water, the overall temperature of the mixture will be between the initial temperatures of the hot and cold water. The hot water will transfer heat to the cold water, resulting in a gradual temperature equilibrium.
What is cold and hot water mixers?
Tempering valve allows for mixed water to be set at desired temperature.
Why does cold water not mix with hot water?
Cold water and hot water have different densities due to their different temperatures. When they are mixed together, the hot water rises and the cold water sinks, creating layers instead of being thoroughly mixed. This phenomenon is known as thermal stratification.
When cold water is mixed with hot water the hot air rises up why?
The reason for this is convection, when the temperature rises the liquid (in this case water) expands, causing it to rise above the cold water which is denser due to the lower temperature. So the hot water rises and the cold water sinks, making a convection current.
What material can you use to make the temperature of water?
the type of material you can use to make the temperature of water is to, use boiling water or cold water and if you mix them together you can get warm water, and if you use hot water you'll have hot steamy water and for cold water you'll have an ice cold water.
What are some temperatures that come out when you mix hot water with cold water?
The resulting temperature when you mis hot water with cold water will be somewhere between the two original temperatures, depending on the temperatures and quantities of the waters being mixed.
What happens when cold water meets warm water?
it becomes a mixture of a warm and cold water :)))
